Combined clutch-brake unit Wichita Clutch

Operating Features
The Wichita Kopper Kool airtube disc
Clutches and Brakes are liquid cooled
and consist of a series of alternating
discs connecting an inner drive member
to an outer drive member. Engagement
is achieved by pneumatic expansion of
the airtube. This air-operated clutch
contains copper discs for excellent heat
dissipation and provides an accurately
controlled continuous slip action.
Braking torque is in direct proportion to
the air pressure applied.
The high level of heat dissipation makes
Kopper Kool Brakes ideal for
dynamometer applications and high
speed web tension control duties when
used with a suitable closed loop control
system such as the Wichita MCS2000
range of controllers.
