Forestry Case

The basic configuration of a wood chipper driven by a stationary engine has not changed much over the years. However, to meet the ever-increasing production demands, there was indeed a need to significantly increase the amount of power generated by these Forest Equipment. To transfer this power to the cutting drum, a belt drive system is used. And consequently, with this high power, it is necessary to have a high belt tension. Belt tension is supported to a greater extent by the Industrial Clutch (PTO), and then by the drum bearings.

The basic configuration of a wood chipper driven by a stationary motor has not changed much over the years. However, to meet increasing production demands, there has been a need to significantly increase the amount of power generated in such forestry equipment. 


To transfer this power to the cutting drum, a belt-drive system is used. And consequently, with this high power, a great deal of belt tension is required. The belt tension is supported to a greater extent by the Industrial Clutch (PTO), and then by the drum bearings.   


Embremaq Power, aware of these new needs of high production in the forestry sector, developed a specific Industrial Clutch design. This version of the Embremaq Clutch, due to its constructive design allows it to absorb and support high radial loads, caused by the requirement of high power and high tension in the belts.


We also added to this design, special "heavy duty" clutch disks, composed of high strength and friction coefficient friction materials, intended for these extremely heavy duty services for forestry operations.  We emphasize in all this technical structure, severe use with minimum maintenance. 


Through this technological innovation, Embremaq Power brought to forestry equipment manufacturers a robust, reliable, and efficient solution. Collaborating and being part of the forestry productive evolution. 


This is exactly why Embremaq Power is the number 1 supplier of power transmission product solutions.
