Spring-wrapped slip clutches are torque-limiting devices for rotational drive systems, designed to protect machinery by slipping at a preset torque. The S9940Y-SWC series features a bore size of 0.3123 inch and a maximum torque limit of 150 ± 15 ozf·in for the S9940Y-SWC19A06 variant, with outer diameter 1.87 inch, length 1.94 inch, and mounting hole pattern of 1.170 inch. The series has a 0.749 inch maximum diameter for the set screw, and is constructed with a specified material to accommodate backlash-free operation under repeat slip conditions.
Clutches and brakes are essential for the efficient control and transfer of drive torque, speed, and power in many rotational drive systems. Precision brakes and clutches can be used to cease or regulate movement.
A brake is utilized to decrease or halt a load (braking) in a motor (either forward or reverse). The function of a clutch is to disengage a drive shaft, pausing the rotation and transferring torque to an output shaft.
A clutch-brake is a single unit with the two combined functions of clutching and braking.
Brakes and clutches are classified by the method used to disengage or stop rotary motion (i.e., friction, mechanical, or electromagnetic), as well as the operative mechanism used to employ the chosen element (i.e., electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, or hydraulic).
We offer several types of brakes, including permanent magnetic brakes, power-off, power-on, and magnetic particle brakes. We also offer several clutch styles, including roller clutches, slip clutches, and electromagnetic clutch couplings.
