Clutches

Lenze electromagnetic clutches and brakes transmit torque by friction lock during dry running under DC voltage. When switched off, the electric excitation is separated free of residual torque via a tensioned annular spring. They are used wherever mass in motion must be slowed or accelerated quickly.

Clutch-brake units consist of an electromagnetic clutch and brake mounted in a single housing. They are used throughout the mechanical engineering industry wherever production is sequenced cyclically.

• Lenze clutches are powerful, reliable series manufacture products that have proven themselves in a wide field of applications over many years.
• All electromagnetically operated clutches and brakes are manufactured and tested to VDE 0580 standards and designed for 100% operation duration.
• Certification of our quality assurance system to ISO 9001 standards guarantees consistently high product quality.
