Magnetic Technologies magnetic couplings magnetic brakes capping clutches    

Quality, Innovation and attention to detail

Since 1984 Magnetic Technologies have been designing and manufacturing high quality permanent magnet brakes, clutches and couplings.

Hysteresis Brakes & Clutches
Magnetic Technologies Magnetic Brakes and Clutches

Quality permanent magnetic tensioning devices for pay-off and torque limiting. Currently on offer 17 product lines ranging from 0.04 in/oz to 140 in/lbs.

All important internal clearances are ground to tolerances of less then .025mm (.001 in).

Magnet Assemblies sorround the hysteresis disc . When like poles face each other , they produce maximum torque and conversely when opposite poles face each other they produce minimum torque. 

Combinations of adjustment angles between these two extremes gives infinite adjustability, and as there are no contacting surfaces, the setting can be maintained indefinitely. .

Eddy Current Clutches

Eddy current clutches give torque as a function of RPM.  The faster you turn the rotor, the more torque.  This means that by increasing or decreasing the RPM, you can get infinite torque adjustment.Magnetic Technologies Eddy Current Clutches

Benefits and features-

  • Accurate tension in ounces or grams.
  • Large bores and narrow widths.
  • No electricity, no slip rings.
  • No break-away torque.
  • No wearing parts.

Bottle Capping Clutches

Most bottle capping clutches today are magnetic, but of the synchronous design.  The synchronous design uses two sets of opposed magnets to achieve the desired torque.  The result is a noisy, ratcheting effect.

In the hysteresis design, the magnets drive the torque through a special material called the hysteresis disc.  The hysteresis disc generates a completely smooth, highly repeatable torque to the bottle cap. The result is better torque to the cap and longer life for the clutch.

Magnetic Technologies applications

 

Magnetic Technologies can offer a range of custom or off the shelf pay-off systems and stands incorporating their range of magnetic brakes and couplings.

 

Magnetic Couplings

Simple Concept: Opposite Poles Attract.

This attraction is how we transmit torque from one magnetic hub

to another.  By driving one magnetic hub, torque is transmitted

magnetically to the other magnetic hub.This can be done through

the air or through a non-magnetic containment barrier such as

stainless steel or fibreglass, allowing complete isolation of the

inner magnetic hub from the outer manetic hub. 

There are no contacting parts!

Disc Couplings

Disc type couplings consist of two couplings consist

of two opposing discs with powerful rare earth magnets.

Due to its simple flat design, you can have angular

misalignment of 3° or parallel misalignment of up to 1/4 inch

and still transmit nearly full rotational torque.

Benefits and features-

  • No wearing parts.
  • Synchronus design, no slip at any speeds.
  • No physical contact between driving and driven parts.
  • Simplifies containment barrier.
  • Custom designs available.

Co-Axial Couplings

The outer hub consists of a series of rare earth magnets that are attached to the inside diameter of the steel hub.  The inner hub consists of a series of rare earth magnets that are attached to the outside diameter of a steel rotor.  The inner hub is then completely sealed in stainless steel to protect the magnets and rotor from damage and corrosive substances.
