Pneumatic Clutches Are Used In Flexographic Printing Industry

- Jul 13, 2019-

China introduced flexible printing technology in the 1970s. Through nearly 30 years of technological innovation, flexographic printing has established its position in the field of packaging and printing, and has become the main force in the field of packaging and printing. Nowadays, the power part of the flexible printing machine is transmitted to each unit by the main motor through the pneumatic clutch, and the color groups are synchronized. Therefore, the soft start will play a vital role in the balance of the color groups. Previously, the electromagnetic clutch and The magnetic powder clutch is unstable in starting due to the influence of current, so the printed color difference is large, and the sense is rough, which is not required for use. The servo motor is used for transmission, and the precision is high, but the cost of the product is higher. In recent years, the use of pneumatic clutches has softened the start-up because it is adjusted with air pressure. The clutch coil will not burn out due to excessive current, which will affect production.


From the development history of the clutch, the application of pneumatic clutch is also the inevitable development of the flexible printing industry. It is the progress of history. The main three phases of clutch development 1. Electromagnetic clutch phase 2. Magnetic powder clutch phase 3. Pneumatic clutch phase. Naturally, there are some special clutches for the industry. We will not introduce them here. We are now mainly in the market for these three types of clutches. In the 70.80s, China's electromagnetic clutch dominated the machinery market, but with the technological innovation, in the late 80s and early 90s, the magnetic powder clutch has quietly entered the market. In the mid-1990s, pneumatic clutches have been used in some high-end industries in China. In fact, in foreign countries, pneumatic clutches have a history of 100 years. In today's flexographic printing industry, many companies have used pneumatic clutches.
