Warner Electric Spring Clutches and Clutch / Brakes
WSC Series wrap spring clutches are mechanically actuated, eliminating the need for external electrical control devices. These simple, trouble-free, easy-to-install clutches feature a high torque capacity in a small, compact package. Units are offered in five standard sizes with torque ratings from 25 lb.in. to 2500 lb.in. Available in three different operating styles with multiple stop collars.
Overrunning / One-Way
This clutch continually drives the load. The load is allowed to overrun the input, should its speed exceed input speed. In the reverse direction the unit acts as a one-way clutch, preventing the load from backing up.
Start / Coast-To-Stop
This start/stop clutch is engaged until the collar that contains the spring tang is disengaged. Once it is stopped, the load is disengaged and coasts to a stop.
Start / Stop – Single Revolution
Attaching one end of the spring to the output hub results in a single revolution clutch. The load is stopped through the spring to the collar. Precise non-cumulative error single revolution cycling is achieved. Braking torque equals 10% of the maximum torque rating.
