MAGNET DRIVER [4 records]

Record 1 2023-05-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Couplings (Mechanical Components)
  • Transmission Systems (Motor Vehicles and Bicycles)
CONT

In the electromagnetic clutch, electromagnetism is used to exert a pressure force on one pressure plate to make the clutch engage. In this type, the driving plate is attached to the electric coils. When the electricity is provided into these coils then the plate work as the magnet and it attracts another plate. So both plates join when the electricity provides and the clutch is in an engaged position. When the driver cuts the electricity, this attraction force disappears, and the clutch is in the disengaged position.

These are usually woofers(bass drivers), tweeters and midrange drivers. There are a number of different driver designs.
