    Overload Clutch GENERAL The CAMCO plunger-type output overload clutch is a reliable minimum service overload device requiring very little attention (in a semi-clean environment) during its service life.

  • Page 14: Recommended Input Configuration

    Recommended Input Configuration The prime objective of a good input connection to an Index Drive is to maintain a constant shock-free velocity. Both the type of motor driving the indexer and the type of connection is of equal importance. Here we explain some of the advantages and disadvantages of these factors.
  • Page 15: Recommended Output Configuration

    Recommended Output Configuration The objective of a good output connection to an Index Drive is to make torque levels predictable and limited in magnitude. A good connection is rigid and free of backlash. DESTACO recommends that a CAMCO output overload clutch be used with index drives whenever possible.
