About Pneumatic Clutches

Pneumatic clutches are equipment drive assemblies that contain pneumatic components for connecting two shafts so that they can either be locked together and spin at the same speed, or decoupled and spin at different speeds. Pneumatic clutches transmit force from one point to another using compressed air or other gases. Engaging a pneumatic clutch transfers power from an engine to devices such as a transmission and drive wheels. Disengaging a pneumatic clutch stops the power transfer, but allows the engine to continue turning.
