Combined capability and durability of all engine components determine how much power can be produced in a particular application. Clutch selection is based upon the power transmitted, clutch rpm, the appropriate service factor, 110 psi (7,6 bar) actuating air pressure and clutch engagement at engine idle. The power output of a basic engine model can be varied within its design ranges by changing the engine fuel setting or speed setting. Both of these settings affect the engine's maximum fuel rate and the power output capability. Recommended Engine Clutch Service Factors Some of the application conditions considered by an engine manufacturer in determining a rating for an application are: Drive SF Compound -Drilling Rig 1.8 Generator1.5 Metal Shredder 2.2 Rotary Table -Drilling Rig 1.5 •• Load factor •• Duty cycle •• Operating hours •• Historical experience Torque loss due to centrifugal effect must be taken into account. Follow procedure given in Section B. The peripheral speed of our spiders and drums should not exceed the limits shown in the below table. The same basic engine model can have different ratings for different industries and applications. Usually, they are grouped into the following categories: Standard Cast spiders, Drums and Hubs (MTL 1-4): 8500 fpm •• Industrial High Speed Cast Drums and Hubs (MTL 1-5): 11,000 fpm High Speed Cast spiders (MTL 1-6): 12,100 fpm •• Truck •• Off-highway •• Power generation •• Petroleum •• Marine Also, within these groupings, are ratings for continuous and intermittent service. Continuous ratings are for continuous use without interruption or load cycling. Intermittent ratings apply to about one hour operation followed by one hour operation at or below the continuous rating. Engine Clutches The CB element is usually recommended for engine clutch applications. Selections are based on the horsepower transmitted by the clutch. In some cases, it may be much lower than the engine's horsepower rating due to other engine driven auxiliary loads. Extra loads imposed by a cooling fan, alternator, air compressor or hydraulic pumps may represent a significant proportion of total engine power available. The use of ductile iron components allows for the higher speed limits. If speed exceeds above limits, a dual element should be considered. Single elements are preferred because of smaller overhung loads and ease of alignment. Selections for Engines With Torque Converters The selection procedure for engines with torque converters is the same as that discussed above for direct drives, but with one other major consideration. Under the stall conditions, i.e. converter output shaft at zero speed, the clutch must be able to transmit the torque multiplication of the converter. The Power Capacity Table can be used to make a selection for single CB clutch elements having a 1.8 service factor and an operating pressure of 110 psi (7,6 bar). Find the horsepower value that is equal or greater than that which must be transmitted in the appropriate rpm line and read the clutch size in the column heading. For dual elements, double the power values in the table.

The clutch element and its spider are fastened to a separate bearing supported jackshaft as shown in the figure. When the clutch mounts on an engine stub shaft or on the output shaft of a torque converter, then the standard gap mounting arrangements (Forms CB406 and CB407) are used. Clutch Engagement Speed The recommended clutch engagement speed is 4500 fpm (22.8 mps) at the friction couple. If the speed at engine idle exceeds this value, then the idle speed should be changed. Engine Clutch Control To ensure clutch engagement at engine idle, the control shown below is recommended. Relay Valve snap acting sequencing A B Ports passes air only when pilot pressure exceeds a set pressure (100 PSI) Pneumatically Controlled Engine Governor/Throttle Port B Supply Pressure (110 PSI) Pilot Pilot connection should be located as close to the clutch as possible Port A Control Valve 2 port compound Port A: instant on/off Port B: modulated pressure with lever position This control system prevents the engine speed from increasing before the pressure in the clutch reaches a preset value.

For the Power Capacity Table, running across the 1200 rpm line, a 16CB500 clutch is selected. 302 EATON Airflex® Clutches & Brakes 10M1297GP November 2012 Airflex® Grinding Mills Section X General Mill Motor Current Demand Grinding mills are classified by the media used for grinding. The more common types of mills are: Ball mills - These mills use forged steel balls up to 5 inches (127 mm) in diameter to crush and grind the material. Mill length is two or more times its diameter. A: Standard torque motor start B: Clutch egagement C: Time to start mill with either drive D: High torque motor start Amperage The function of a grinding mill is to reduce the particle size of a material to a size necessary for a given process. The grinding is accomplished by rotating a large cylinder that is partially filled with the material to be ground and grinding media. As the cylinder rotates, its contents is lifted until it falls or tumbles over itself back down to the bottom of the cylinder. The impact of the grinding media and the tumbling action crush and grind the material down to the desired particle size. B to D: 6 to 10 seconds Rod mills - Steel rods up to 4.5 inches (114 mm) in diameter and slightly shorter then the mill length are used for the grinding process. Mill length is two or more times its diameter. Pebble mills - These mills use small cylinders, balls, or other chunks of silica, porcelain, aluminum or zirconium oxides for grinding. This type of mill is used when the product must be free of metallic contamination. Autogenous mills - These mills use coarse ore particles of the material to grind itself. Grinding is by attrition. An autogenous mill's diameter is larger compared to its length. Semi-Autogenous mills - Forged steel balls in addition to the coarse ore perform the grinding. Mill diameter is larger compared to mill length. Use of a clutch permits the mill motor or motor and reducer to be started in the unloaded condition, keeping current demand and power factor within limits agreed upon with local utilities. The result is a substantial savings on power costs. The following amperage curves compare peak current demands of high torque - direct drive systems and drive systems using standard torque motors with Airflex clutches which replaced them. Time A type VC clutch element or use an Airflex auxiliary hydraulic inching drive is selected using the procedure outlined in Section B. For good friction lining life, it is desirable to limit the maximum clutch engagement speed to 4500 fpm (22,8 mps). If the clutch is used for inching of the mill, engagement speed should not exceed 3500 fpm (17,8 mps). Gap mounted arrangements, Forms VC506 thru VC510, are recommended. A preliminary clutch selection guide is given on the following pages. The selections are valid for the operating parameters stated on the guide. Because of the large thermal loads associated with mill startup, the use of VC clutches are recommended. Clutch Selection The required clutch torque is calculated from the power rating of the mill motor, clutch shaft rpm and an appropriate service factor.

For larger power motors and higher clutch shaft speeds a more thorough analysis of the mill is required. Various mill starts can be simulated by computer modeling to determine the proper clutch size and starting time. The various starts are obtained by changing the rate of pressure build-up, and hence the rate of torque build-up in the clutch. For a given clutch size, the mill starting times are plotted against the resulting clutch thermal load. A typical overview of the starts are shown below. The preferred starting time is when the peak loading is at a minimum. For any given starting time, the entire clutch profile can be projected for the complete start. By comparing the profile to the rated capacity, the clutch's suitability for the drive can be determined. The information required for simulation must include: •• Type of mill •• Mill inertia •• Mill rpm Clutch Thermal Loading •• Inside diameter of shell liners Clutch Control Normal mill starting procedure is to bring the motor up to operating speed and then engage the clutch to accelerate the mill. Airflex offers several types of reliable systems for clutch control. The systems consists of two parts: the pneumatic and electrical portions. Refer to Airflex catalog A-191 or Section B of this catalog for more information. The pneumatic portion is basically that shown in Section Y, with the addition of a three-way normally closed solenoid valve, a manually adjusted flow control valve and pressure switch, all plumbed in the air line to the clutch. The pressure switch in the clutch air line prevents motor starting if the clutch is pressurized. The pressure switch on the air tank insures that sufficient air volume and pressure is available before a start can be made. Rate of clutch torque build-up and mill acceleration is determined by the flow control valve setting. The pressure switches are tied in electrically to the motor and clutch control circuits. The electrical clutch control furnished by Airflex regulates the electrical signal to the solenoid valve. The standard control permits starting, stopping and where applicable, inching of the mill.

EATON VC Clutches for Grinding Mills April 2012 306 EATON Airflex® Clutches & Brakes 10M1297GP November 2012 ® 42 Airflex® Marine Drives Section X General Selection Procedure Airflex marine clutches are readily adaptable to the wide variety of drive arrangements found in the marine industry. They have been used for main propulsion, bow thrusters, reversereduction gears and Z-drives. Clutch selection is based upon the torque requirement calculated from the maximum power to be transmitted, clutch shaft rpm and an appropriate service factor. For drives utilizing a controllable pitch propeller, the service factor is 1.5; for a fixed pitch propeller 1.7. The type VC element can be easily combined with a torsional coupling for the main propulsion drive or it can be furnished in quill shaft mountings required for reverse-reduction gear drives. The more common VC marine clutch arrangements appear on the following pages. Type CM elements are used primarily for connecting the engine to in-line reverse reduction gears. Maximum recommended operating air pressure for reversing clutch application is 125 psi (8,6 bar). For reversing applications employing a propeller shaft brake or disconnect applications having a controllable pitch propeller, maximum operating air pressure is 150 psi (10,3 bar). Follow the selection procedure outlined in Section B for VC and CM elements. Horsepower capacities for VC elements at various speeds appear on the following pages. The elements shown have sufficient thermal capacity to handle crash stops. For maneuvering (slipping the clutch to obtain propeller speeds below engine idle), contact the factory.

In addition, the brake reduces the shock loads on the major components of the propulsion system and prevents freewheeling of the propeller in heavy currents. The chart below compares the thermal load imposed on a reversing clutch through a "crash astern maneuver" and a brake and reverse clutch through the same maneuver. Clutch thermal load is much less when the brake/clutch combination is used, prolonging clutch life. Airflex element types VC, CH and calipers are recommended for use as propeller shaft brakes.

C: Full astern A tentative brake selection is made using the torque calculated from the percentage of full propulsive power. The selected brake's thermal capacity is then compared to the stopping thermal load. The thermal load is calculated from the component inertias to be stopped and the wind milling propeller torque resulting from water flow through the propeller. Time Brake Selection Procedure A characteristic propeller shaft Time reversing torque curve at maximum speed ahead is shown below. This generally is the operating speed requiring the greatest stopping torque. The characteristic curve is dependent upon ship design and varies somewhat with the type of vessel. The propeller shaft brake must have sufficient torque to reduce propeller speed to the maximum brake torque point. This torque rarely exceeds 70% of full power torque except for vessels with high performance hulls and/or twin propellers. Use 100% of full power torque for these vessels. (Full power torque does not include service factor). Brake torque at various speeds for different types of vessels are given in the following table: EATON Airflex® Clutches & Brakes 10M1297GP November 2012 313 Airflex® Paper Machine Drives Section X General L: width of web (in) Selections for all paper machine sections are based upon TAPPI NRL* power requirements, the clutch shaft speed and a service factor.

Airflex® Paper Machine Drives Section X Dryer Sections Normally dryer clutch sizing is determined by thermal capacity and the resulting clutch selection will have torque capacities that exceed those indicated by the above calculations.

A special VC water- cooled unit, having a different friction couple, can be furnished. The friction area required for watercooling is 1/6 of that required for an air-cooled clutch; however, the clutch torque rating must be reduced by 40%. The clutch must also be capable of accelerating the dryer in a reasonable time. The acceleration torque can be calculated from: W k2 ⋅ v Ma = 0.74 ⋅ 2 D ⋅n Ma: acceleration torque (lb·in) Z: acceleration rate (fpm/sec) Use 50 to 60 fpm/sec if the acceleration rate is not specified.

Press brakes are used for bending operations. Shears are used to cut material to size. In most cases, the material being worked is steel. Motor Flywheel Drive Pinion These machines usually utilize a slider-crank linkage to transfer kinetic energy from a rotating flywheel to a reciprocating ram. They are rated by the force Fr, the ram can exert at a given distance d above the bottom of the stroke. This distance is called the drive capacity. The product of the drive capacity and rated force determines the maximum energy which should be removed from the flywheel to perform the necessary work. Clutch As energy is removed from the flywheel, and work is performed, the flywheel slows down. The machine's motor replaces the expended flywheel energy before the next work stroke by bringing the flywheel back up to its operating speed. Bullgear Crankshaft Single geared, single drive clutch mounted on flywheel Motor A clutch and brake is usually required for one or all of the following reasons: •• For die or blade setup. •• For feeding and removing work pieces from the machine. Flywheel Drive Pinion •• For emergency stopping. Clutch Because these machines are inherently dangerous, the brakes are spring-set, pressure released types.

Formulas are given in Section Y which allow calculation of brake torque Mb knowing the stopping angle, inertia to be stopped and the brake shaft speed n. A brake selection is made using Mb.

Depending upon the industry, the process is also called coiling or spooling. Examples are a roll of paper toweling and a coil of steel providing material in a stamping operation. Depending upon material, multiply the graph tension by the following factors: Unwinding is the process of controlled payoff of material which has previously been wound, coiled or spooled. In both processes it is important to maintain a constant tension or pull on the material. Improper tensioning during winding results in roll dishing or telescoping and improper roll density. Improper tensioning during unwinding can cause web distortion and flutter, affecting the reprocessing operation. Material tension can be controlled electrically, hydraulically or mechanically. Airflex products recommended for mechanical (friction) control include the types E, EB, WCB and caliper elements. See selection guide, below.

Tension values may vary considerably from plant to plant and from machine to machine; operator preference as to tightness of web and desired roll densities are also factors. To assist in this matter, the tension charts shown are intended to serve only as a guide.

Various papers and board stocks with different basic weight and size designations should be adjusted to 3000 ft2 for direct reading from the chart. For example, if a board is designated 120 lbs per 1000 ft2, multiply 120 by 3 to bring it to 3000 ft2. If board weight is in points, multiply by 10 (i.e., 50 point board x 10 = 500 lbs per 3000 ft2). For chip board multiply the point designation by 8.5. 2 2 In most winding and unwinding applications, in addition to a constant tension, the material processing procedure requires a constant web speed that is usually controlled by the processing machine's main drive. During unwinding, as the roll diameter decreases, the roll rpm increases and the tension or drag brake torque requirement decreases. When winding, as the roll diameter increases, the roll rpm decreases and the slip clutch torque requirement increases. Both clutch and brake torque is adjusted by regulation of the applied pressure during the winding and unwinding procedure. Selection Procedure Material Tension (lb/in) In many cases, the winding and unwinding machines are required to handle different types of materials and/or operate under different parameters. It is important to determine the maximum and minimum operating ranges The following parameters are necessary to determine proper clutch and brake sizes (see Section Y for units): Material Tmax: maximum material tension Tmin: minimum material tension or Fmax: maximum material pull Fmin: minimum material pull Paper Weight (lb/3000 ft 2 ) D: maximum roll diameter d: minimum roll or core diameter wmax: maximum web width wmin: minimum web width vmax: maximum web speed Material Tension (N/cm) vmin: minimum web speed R: reduction between clutch or brake shaft and roll shaft Paper Mass (gram/m 2 ) EATON Airflex® Clutches & Brakes 10M1297GP November 2012 323 Airflex® Tensioning, Winding and Unwinding Section X Using the parameters, the following calculations are made: F = T .w The calculated torques, thermal power and speeds must fall within the capacities given in the appropriate product catalog section.

For oil exploration, the hole can be anywhere from 4.5 to 20 inches (114 to 508 mm) in diameter and 30000 feet (9140 meters) in depth. Clutches are required for the rig's prime movers and to control the drawworks and rotary table functions.

The engines are arranged so that they may be put in operation as the need arises. For instance, at the start of drilling, one engine may provide all the power necessary. As the hole becomes deeper, the second and then the third engine can be brought on-line. This arrangement is called a compound and CB clutches are used to engage and disengage the engines. The low speed drum clutch torque requirement ML is deterDrumdrum radius r. mined by the single line pull F and the working Radius Usually, the maximum hook load H is given instead of single line pull. Single line pull is calculated from: During the drilling operation, pumps are used to circulate a mud slurry to clean the bottom of the hole, to cool and lubricate the tools and to maintain the walls of the well. Hereto, CB elements are used to connect and disconnect the pumps as required. E: Tackle efficiency A selection procedure for engine clutches is given in Section X. Use the procedure for clutch sizing. Drawworks Clutches Sections of pipe are used to connect the drilling bit to the rotary table. After the bit has bored a pipe length depth, the operation is stopped and a new pipe section added. The drilling bits wear and must be replaced several times when drilling a well. This means the drill string (the bit and all the pipe sections) must be withdrawn from the hole, the bit replaced and the drill string re-assembled. Raising and lowering of the string is the function of the drawworks. Tackle Efficiency F= Working Radius H N.E N: number of lines strung Good design practice limits the line pull to one-half of the line breaking strength.

Usually, the drawworks is rated on the second line wrap on the drum.

The drawwork's transmission allows a number of drum speeds. The deeper drilling rigs have a low and high speed drum clutch which further increases the number of possible drum speeds. The drill string weight (hook load) determines which clutch is used.

Applying a service factor results in too large a clutch torque for the range of speeds and a overstressed line. Using the calculated low drum torque and the lowest drum rpm NL, the power required for hoisting Ph is calculated from: M ⋅n Ph = L L (H P ) 63025 Ph = Lines strung N: 8 Line dia. d: 1.125 in Rated wrap W: 3 High speed range: 108 to 254 rpm ML ⋅ nL (k W ) 9550 F = High speed clutch torque MH is calculated from the hoist power and the lowest high speed drum rpm NH. A service factor is applied because of abuse from higher engagement speeds and shock loading due to breaking the drill string free of the rotary table slips.

Because of the large torque requirement, VC elements are used. Follow the selection procedure given in Section B. Inertia Brake This brake is used to stop the rotating transmission components of the drawworks. Its selection is based upon the rotating inertia, the brake shaft speed and the desired stopping time. Other Drawworks Clutches All other clutch selections with the exception of the sand reel are based upon the maximum power which the clutch must transmit, the clutch shaft speed and the appropriate service factor from the following table.

Airflex WCBD & WCSB units are selected for 100% of maximum rated loads. They will function as retarding and stopping the loads. 1. Empty hook load WCSB is a combination brake that provides dynamic (tensioning) braking, parking (static holding) and spring applied e-stop braking. The WCSB (combo) is designed for direct mounting and to be used as the sole brake (only mechanical brake) on a drawworks application. (AC, DC or Mechanical).The water cooled portion of the brake offers energy absorption (HP) capacity, while the spring set function accommodates “fail safe” braking (for parking & e-stop). WCSB must be sized with 2 aspects; plenty of torque (spring set) for heaviest loads at “worn condition” and then also plenty of HP (for dynamic braking). However on AC drawworks, the brake may not see full HP, as the motors are doing most of the energy dissipation. 4. Available air pressure A WCBD is primarily an “auxiliary” brake for all types of drawworks, as it can be coupled, chain driven or direct mounted. HP sizing is the primary concern. If used on an AC drawworks, a fail-safe mechanical brake must be present (spring set bands, spring set calipers, spring set plate brake, etc…) 14. Hook speed (Full load) 2. Maximum full load 3.
