The powder clutches and brakes of Mitsubishi Electric, which use magnetic iron powder for transmitting torque, offer advantages such as a smooth fluid clutch and high efficiency upon coupling of the friction plate clutches.
These products are indispensable for tension control as actuators for winding and unwinding long materials such as paper, thread, electric wire and various sheets. They are also suitable for buffer startup, power absorption, and overload safety devices (torque limiter).
