Structure and Working Principle
Core Components
Includes clutch body, piston, brake spring, friction plates, clutch ear plate, and brake ear plate. It connects to the spindle via a flat key for efficient torque transmission.
Working Process
- Engagement: Compressed air enters the cylinder, moving the piston to compress the brake spring and unite friction plates.
- Braking: Air supply disconnection triggers the spring reset, reversing the piston to press plates against the brake disc for rapid stopping.
💎
Technical Features
- High Efficiency: Compact design for high-speed, high-frequency applications.
- Heat Resistance: Advanced composite friction plates withstand temperatures up to 350°C.
- Safety: Asbestos-free materials for environmental compliance and silent operation.
- Easy Maintenance: Friction plates can be replaced without disassembling the entire clutch body.

Safety Precautions
1. Pre-maintenance: Disconnect all power and air supplies and ensure the system is fully depressurized.
2. Positioning: Ensure the slider is at the lower dead center to prevent accidental movement.
3. Spring Handling: Restrain the brake spring force carefully during disassembly to avoid injury.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the response time for the clutch and brake engagement?
A: The response time is highly efficient, measured at ≤0.02 seconds for both clutch engagement and braking.
Q2: Can the friction plates be replaced without taking apart the whole unit?
A: Yes, the design allows for "on-the-fly" maintenance where friction plates can be replaced without disassembling the clutch body.
Q3: What is the maximum torque capacity of the AS0250 model?
A: A single disc offers up to 6800 N·m for clutching. When using a dual-disc configuration, the torque is doubled to 13600 N·m.
Q4: Is the material used in the plates environmentally friendly?
A: Absolutely. We use asbestos-free friction materials composed of advanced phenolic resin and inorganic fiber composites.
Q5: What are the required air pressure levels for operation?
A: For reliable performance and safety, the stable working air pressure should be maintained between 5.5 and 6.0 kg/cm².
Q6: What is the typical lifespan of the friction plates?
A: The friction plates are rated for ≥500,000 cycles, though this can vary depending on specific application frequency and load.
