Key features

  • Accurate torque
  • Stable torque
  • Long operational life
  • Easy installation
  • No contamination

Product description

The drag torque on the low cost slip clutch is produced by means of a hysteresis principle. This allows for constant torque levels and eliminates the possibility of high break away torque that occurs with typical friction devices.

Permanent magnets and magnetic particles transmit torque therefore wear is virtually eliminated. Units are provided pre-assembled to a specific torque range and are sealed preventing any particles from contaminating the machine.

These units are primarily used as paper feed separators such as those within copy machines, printers, ATM’s, card readers and mailing machines or other feed devices with low torque limiting requirements.

Accurate torque

The drag torque is produced by means of a hysteresis principle. This allows for constant torque levels and eliminates the possibility of high break away torque that occurs with typical friction devices.

Stable torque

Consistent torque is maintained because of the hysteresis principle and is consistent within allowable speed range.

Long operational life

Permanent magnets and magnetic particles transmit torque, therefore wear is virtually eliminated.

Easy installation

Units are provided pre-assembled to a specific torque range, so there is nothing to adjust.

No contamination

Units are sealed which prevents any particles from contaminating the machine, and also prevents contamination of the clutch by the machine environment.
