Power Grip PO Clutch And Its Product Details

By Janet Hughes


Industries, particularly in the engineering and manufacturing, use heavy duty machines and equipment. They procure these from manufacturers to make quality products. To manufacture their production, they have to maintain and replace these to ensure optimal proficiency. A company has created a power grip PO clutch for them to replace their damaged parts.

WPT Power Corporation has been providing industry sectors with heavy duty products for almost twenty seven years. They have also been rewarded with certifications from American Bureau of Shipping and International Organization of Standards. They are a leading manufacturer offering four product lines to their customers. These are industrial clutches, industrial brakes, engine driven products, and winches and hoists.

They have worldwide customers from various industry sectors. Their products in mechanical transmission are applied in heavy duty works in their respective sectors. Mining, steel, marine, energy, and agriculture are only some of the sectors they distribute to.

Hydraulic and pneumatic power systems are installed in the industrial clutches. OEM or original equipment manufacturers trust and prefer their products because of its desirable working conditions. They are smooth, precise and can take the pressure of heavily demanding engineering procedures.

Research and development have incorporated latest innovations to develop improvements in their power grip clutches. The old coil spring has been replaced with wave spring due to the maximum revolutions per minute it produces. It lessened their cost as well because only a single spring can be used in comparison to the several coils in the previous model.

Extended teeth are also the effect of innovation. This is their very own creation which they patented. Its purpose is to help them ease the reassembling of the power grip clutches. Placing the plate to the hub center is now easier, as well as putting in the bolts and other parts.

Different models of the clutches have their respective specification. This specific power grip clutch product can have a model with a maximum speed of as low as 1,300 rpm to as high as 2,450 rpm. It can also weigh from 145 lbs. Or 66 kg. To 1,400 lbs. Or 635 kg. Their drive rings comes in two types, A and B, as well as having different range of dimensions.

Applications on the power transmissions are the jobs this type of clutch can do. It has release springs and plate separators so customers can do separation on the mechanical plates easier. Torque means the amount of force that forces the equipment to rotate on its axis. So, when the large diaphragm gets installed, the torque of each model is high. The diaphragm also minimizes the wear and tear over its product life.

Manuals containing instructions are provided to customer to let them familiarize how to properly handle the clutches. They are prescribed to do so because of them being heavy duty equipment. Specified information regarding its engineering is stated in there including how to do the installation, operation, and maintenance. Maximize employee safety by constantly inspecting the equipment and being vigilant in their surroundings. Safety gear have to be worn always.
