Selection Requirements
To properly select a High Torque Clutch
and Low Inertia Brake, the following
information must be determined.
1. Torque necessary to do the work (clutch)
2. Rotating inertia to be stopped and started
3. Heat generated by each stop/start
4. Torque necessary to stop inertia (brake)
5. Shaft size
Wichita High Torque Clutches provide the
highest torque to size ratios of any Wichita
Clutch. They provide smooth controlled starts
and stops and are designed for minimum
power loss due to low rotating inertia.
• Extremely fast response
• No lubrication
• High torque to size ratio
• Low rotating inertia
