Spindle Drive Clutch

Increase Tool Feed Rates In Multiple Speeds

Tired of repairing and replacing electromagnetic spindle drive clutches and clutch coils in your Ultramatic Logan has the answer. Logan has developed a simple 4-Speed Spindle Drive Retrokit package which increases tool feed rates in multiple speeds and reduces idle time between speed changes on your No. 2 and No. 3 Ultras.

Consistent, Accurate, Reliable Productivity

It’s simple - Air actuated Logan clutches can cycle more efficiently and effectively than the old style electromagnetic clutches - giving you consistent, accurate, reliable productivity. Old-style electromagnetic clutches are renowned for creating residual DC magnetism, which hampers electromagnetic clutch engagement and disengagement - creating unwanted machine idle time, downtime and maintenance headaches.

Run more aggressive cycle times!

Mr. Dewey Lambert of United Mfg., Washington State: “I’ve been using Logan Clutches in my Ultramatics for three years. They haven’t missed a beat. I can reliably change the spindle speeds and run more aggressive cycle times–without the hassle, downtime, and expense that I encountered with the old-style electromagnetic base clutches. Each time a magnetic clutch fails–I replace the set with Logan Clutches!”

Each Logan Spindle Drive Retrokit is furnished complete with Clutches, Drive Cups, Sprockets, an Electrical-Pneumatic Start-up Kit, and Detailed Schematics
