Product Description

The Force Control Posidyne clutch brake consist of a clutch stack and brake stack made up of alternating friction discs and drive plates connected to a splined output shaft. The drive plates are connected to the input shaft or housing.

A centrally located air (or hydraulic) actuated piston exerts pressure on either the clutch stack or brake stack – never both.

Adjustable actuation pressure on the friction stack establishes the torque transmitted by that stack, and is independently adjustable.

There are three types of Clutch brake available:
