Power-on Clutches are used to couple two parallel shafts. The armature hub assembly is mounted to the same shaft as the rotor assembly. The armature hub accommodates a pulley, gear, sprocket, etc., to transmit torque to the second shaft. The field assembly is mounted on the shaft and retained by a loose-fitting pin or bracket through the anti-rotation tab.
Typical Applications of Clutches include:
Packaging Machinery
Medical Equipment
Conveyors
Postal Sorters/Readers
Document Feeders
Textile Equipment
Mobile Power Equipment
Copiers/Printers
