application
Indexing
It is also called rotational intermittent feed.
The constant cycle motion of outer race is converted into intermittent rotational motion and transmitted to inner race (shaft).
This method involves repeated high frequency engagement and idling.

Purpose of use and operation explanation
It is used to cut plastic film to a specific length accurately.
The reciprocating motion from the eccentric plate is accelerated using a rack and pinion system, causing outer race of the cam clutch to rotate forward and backward.
inner race is fed intermittently in one direction, and when the plastic film is fed intermittently, it is heat-sealed.
The bag is then finished by cutting.
To achieve accurate feeding accuracy...

In the case of the operation described above, the inertia of the roller is stopped,
A brake is always used to ensure accurate feed.
The diagram on the left shows the brakes of a car as an example.
The time it takes to stop with light braking and heavy braking
A feeding error occurs. To eliminate the feeding error with high precision,
A brake that can provide stable torque is required.
Advantages of using a Cam Clutch
- -Initial costs are lower than with servo motors.
