Industrial Brakes and Clutches

Every component of an industrial brake or clutch assembly, including the springs, needs to be strong, dependable and able to withstand the most rigorous conditions. 

The Challenge: Avoiding Breakdown 

When springs are used in brake and clutch assemblies, they can require individualised shims, making assembly a painstaking, one-at-a-time process.  

The springs must also tolerate intense pressure. If a spring is forced beyond its capacity, it can take a set or crack because of fatigue. Even if a spring’s elastic limit is not challenged, its materials can weaken, corrode or fail. Unpredictable spring failure can put expensive equipment out of service, bring production to a halt and result in additional warranty costs.
