Electromagnetic clutches are essential components for controlling power transmission in hydraulic and industrial systems. Using a magnetic field, they enable the rapid and precise engagement or disengagement of two shafts. This technology ensures smooth engagement, reducing torsional peaks, and allows remote control via electronic control units (ECUs), providing extremely high power density and minimal wear when disengaged.
Selecting the ideal component depends on torque requirements and the severity of the application. For light-duty cycles, the Borelli 10 daNm Electromagnetic Clutch Series 30901 – 30903 offers a compact design and fast electrical response, while the Borelli 14 daNm Electromagnetic Clutch Series 30980 – 30981 ensures maximum reliability for more frequent engagement cycles. As loads increase, more precise torsional control is required: the Borelli 21 daNm Electromagnetic Clutch Series 30990 – 30991 handles medium-duty loads while delivering excellent switching times. Finally, for heavy-duty applications requiring disengagement under load, the Borelli 50 daNm Electromagnetic Clutch Series 30940 SF – 30941 SF preserves the integrity of the drivetrain in large machinery.
These clutches are widely used in agriculture, earthmoving machinery, marine winches, and industrial automation. They play a crucial role wherever selective power transmission is required, such as independently driving auxiliary gear pumps, ventilation systems, or compressors. This eliminates the need to stop the main engine and helps minimize machine downtime.
