Overview
IMC Output Overload and Rite-Torq® Clutches are engineered to prevent downtime in indexing equipment by disengaging the drive system during overload or jam conditions. They are compatible with IMC index drives and feature a single position reset for maintaining accuracy and timing. Available in various models, these clutches offer standard and custom torque settings with a rigid, backlash-free design.
Specifications- IMC Output Overload Clutches: Suitable for scenarios where an Output Overload Clutch is not feasible, such as weight lifting. They feature adjustable torque settings and reset post-overload.
- D-Type Clutch: Flange-mounted for large dial surfaces, available in models like 2.8D to 61D with varying dimensions and torque settings.
- D-SA Type Clutch: Super-accurate flange-mounted with adjustable torque, re-engaging within ±10 arc seconds. Models include 2.8D-SA to 7.8D-SA.
- F-Type Clutch: Flange to flange mounting for a compact connection, with models from .39F to 41F.
- S-Type Clutch: Shaft to flange mounting, designed for use without output flanges, with models from .39S to 41S.
- FC-Type Clutch: Flange to shaft mounting for a rigid connection, with models from .39FC to 41FC.
- C-Type Clutch: Shaft to shaft mounting for positive connections, with models from .39C to 41C.
- S-SD Type Clutch: Shaft to flange, shrink-disk mounting for high capacity connections, with models from .39S-SD to 25S-SD.
- FC-SD Type Clutch: Flange to shaft, shrink-disk mounting for the highest capacity connections, with models from .39FC-SD to 25FC-SD.
Key Features- Precision hardened and ground components.
- Overload detector plate for actuation of detector switch.
- Wide range of models with adjustable torque settings.
Recommendations
For high load applications, position "B" is recommended for enhanced rigidity and overhung loading.
Detailed Specifications- FC-SD-Type Clutch: Models like .39FC-SD to 25FC-SD with torque settings from 160 lb-in to 25000 lb-in.
- C-SD-Type Clutch: Similar to FC-SD, with torque settings from 160 lb-in to 25000 lb-in.
- RITE-TORQ® Clutches: Various mounting configurations with torque settings from 100 lb-in to 15500 lb-in.
- Input Overload Clutches (IOC): Adjustable trip torque settings, models from 180-IOC to 800-IOC.
Conclusion
Specifications and dimensions are subject to change; it is advised to request current drawings from IMC for precise measurements. Selecting the appropriate clutch model based on application needs and gear reducer size is crucial.
