MAGNETIC PARTICLE CLUTCHES/BRAKES Ogura offers clutches and brakes for applications requiring 0.01"oz. to 25,000 lb.ft. of torque.There are approximately 3,000 different clutch models available. Besides an extensive standard product line we also have the flexibility to handle special designs or modifications for our customers.
	OPL Permanent-Magnet Mag-Particle Slip Clutch (Torque Range: 0.27~3.5in-lbs / 0.03~0.4Nm) Low cost slip clutch design for momentary and/or continuous slipping. Torque is produced magnetically eliminating the possibility of high break away torque that occurs within typical friction devices. Torque is consistent over a given speed range. Units are sealed so that internal particles cannot contaminate machine likewise external particles cannot contaminate the OPLs. Units are supplied with stainless steel shafts, which can be customized to meet your needs. (The OPR units are hollow bore mounted.) OPC Electromagnetic Mag-Particle Clutch (Torque Range: 4.4~71in-lbs / 0.5~8Nm) Magnetic particle clutch designed for industrial applications requiring fast response time and a stable torque. Units can also be set for continuous slip which makes them ideal for tension applications. Since voltage to torque is linear, output torque can be easily controlled. Since torque is also transmitted via internal particles, unit life is extremely long. OPB-N Electromagnetic Mag-Particle Brake (Torque Range: 4.4~71in-lbs / 0.5~8Nm) Magnetic particle brake designed for industrial applications requiring fast response time and a stable torque. Units can also be set for continuous slip which makes them ideal for tension applications. Since voltage to torque is linear, output torque can be easily controlled. Since torque is also transmitted via internal particles, unit life is extremely long. PC Electromagnetic Mag-Particle Clutch (Torque Range: 8.8~144ft-lbs / 12~195Nm) Magnetic particle clutch designed for industrial applications requiring fast response time and a stable torque. Units can also be set for continuous slip which makes them ideal for tension applications. Since voltage to torque is linear, output torque can be easily controlled. Since torque is also transmitted via internal particles, unit life is extremely long. PB Electromagnetic Mag-Particle Brake (Torque Range: 8.8~144ft-lbs / 12~195Nm) Magnetic particle brake designed for industrial applications requiring fast response time and a stable torque. Units can also be set for continuous slip which makes them ideal for tension applications. Since voltage to torque is linear, output torque can be easily controlled. Since torque is also transmitted via internal particles, unit life is extremely long.
