Clutches & Brakes

Clutches and brakes are used to adjust the speed of rotating elements. A clutch is a transmission and control device that provides for energy transfer from the driver to the driven shaft. A brake is a transmission and control device that stops a moving load, regulates movement, or holds a load at rest by transforming kinetic energy into heat.
