Friction combined clutch-brake unit AMU-C series

electromagnetic

Clutch/brake units are designed for general industrial use. Unit features die cast housing with double bearing support on the input and the output shafts. Units come standard with zero backlash armatures but can be modified for high cycle applications using a zero gap armature. Modular simple 1 piece construction means no adjustments required. Clear plastic cover allows you to see inside the unit without having to remove the cover. EASY MOUNTING AND MAINTENANCE The clutch/brake units are preassembled. No adjustments are necessary, simply attach your pulley or coupling to the output shaft and you are ready to go. ZERO BACKLASH By mounting the armature to the hub via leaf springs, backlash is minimized and armature rattle is eliminated. CONTROLLABLE RESPONSE TIME Variations in acceleration or deceleration times and slip torque can be achieved by controlling the applied current. FAST RESPONSE Elimination of splines provides faster response and high performance by overcoming friction in the armature and hub. HIGH HEAT DISSIPATION The AM series units perform relentlessly year after year, even in heavy duty applications, due to their excellent heat dissipation. GOOD OVERHUNG LOAD CAPACITY Four bearings (two on the bore input and output) provide excellent overhung load capacity.
