TM 228 Clutch Plate Friction Apparatus Show data sheet (pdf file)
Technical Description
Using this unit, the term surface friction and the function of a plate clutch can be studied in experiments. Various metal discs are attached to the support for the experiments; these form the mating face. The upper loose friction disc made of steel is placed against these discs. The loose friction disc can be rotated and is fitted to a bearing stud. The disc is driven by attaching weights to a belt that passes around the circumference of the disc; the rope is guided using low friction ball bearing mounted pulleys. The weight of the loose disc and the additional weights applied generate the necessary contact pressure.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
· Relationship between contact force and friction moment
· Influence of the materials used on the friction moment
