Power transmission for every application: clutch manufacturer Mönninghoff

From aviation to marine, from filigree high-tech robotics and packaging machines to pumps and extruders: When torque needs to be transmitted, reliable drive technology is required. As diverse as the fields of application are, as diverse are the technical requirements that a clutch or a coupling has to fulfill. Mönninghoff is your reliable and innovative clutch manufacturer and technology partner to exactly meet this customer specific requirements. Our electromagnetic clutches, shaft couplings, torque limiter, voice coil actuator as well as integrated drive systems are used in an infinite number of variants in machines and systems from all industries worldwide.

Decades of experience and highly specialized know-how: Mönninghoff develops individual and customer specific drive technology for your applications. Discuss your planned drive design with us – together we will find the best solution for your task.

As a clutch manufacturer specialized in customer specific solutions, we develop and produce drive technology for every application

The choice of the right electromagnetic clutch or shaft coupling always depends on the application the environmental conditions. Based on decades of experience as a clutch manufacturer, Mönninghoff offers a wide range of industry-sector-specific drive elements, which are all characterized by precise torque transmission, high operational reliability, excellent system integration and long service life.

  • clutches: clutches from Mönninghoff can be switched electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically and offer a wide range of variants. One example of our innovative power is the patented M1 bistable electromagnetic tooth clutch, which can save up to 99 % of the energy depending on the application.

  • shaft coupling: shaft couplings compensate misalignments and shock loads while damping vibrations in the drive train. In addition to torsionally stiff couplings, we as a clutch and coupling manufacturer also offer a wide range of torsionally flexible shaft couplings. We always strive for an optimum drive solution that fits your application best combining different drive elements.

  • torque limiter: a torque limiter or safety clutch limits the torque to previously defined limit value. If this limit value is exceeded, e.g., due to operating errors or malfunctions, the torque limiter disengages the drive train and its connected drive elements, thus preventing damage. Our torque limiters rely on different working principles, like a Multiple-disc torque limiter (friction fit), an electromagnetic tooth clutch or a SecMatic torque limiter (both form fit).

As an experienced clutch manufacturer and shaft coupling expert, we develop individual customer specific solutions that perfectly match the requirements of your application. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
