TURRET PUNCH PRESS APPLICATION

Turret punch presses are one example of where the Model CBH
combination clutch-brakes have been successfully applied on
both original equipment as well as conversion replacement for dry
clutch and brakes on existing machines.

Turret punch presses are ideal candidates for the operating
features the Model CBH units can offer.

Longevity

Reliability

Quiet Operation

Stopping Accuracy

Repeatable Operation

Greatly Reduced Maintenance

Increased Machine Productivity

Eliminates Wear Particles

Eliminates Air Lubricator Mist

Eliminates Air Supply Requirements

Industrial Clutch Products has been building clutches and brakes
for turret punch presses for over 30 years and can state without
reservation that the Model CBH combinations clutch-brake
provides the user of this equipment an extremely high degree of
reliability and longevity.

CONVERSIONS

The Model CBH is ideally suited for conversion of older turret
punch presses to state-of-the-art oil immersed clutch-brakes.

Virtually all of the turret punch presses in the field today can be
converted within a minimal timeframe and budget. Paybacks are
rapid and in most older installations the machine productivity can
be increased by over 50%.

The process involves obtaining a conversion kit provided by
Industrial Clutch Products (see photos). The existing clutch-brake
or separate clutch and brake is removed and a mounting bracket
is fabricated to attach the Model CBH to the press frame.
Crankshaft mounting diameters and flywheel mounting bolt circles
are preserved in the majority of cases as the Model CBH can be
modified to mount directly to, or through the use of an adapter,
directly to these surfaces. All former clutch and brake air
equipment is stripped from the press frame as it is no longer
required.The valve assembly is mounted and hoses and power
are run to the hydraulic power unit. The control is modified to
provide a single valve signal for both the clutch and brake func-
tion. The unit is then ready for operation. (Refer to schematic-next
page.)

Industrial Clutch Products will be pleased to provide conversion
assistance to ensure a successful installation.
