[E152] Clutch Minimum Power

Created by Patrik Neuendorf, Modified on Wed, 9 Oct at 12:01 PM by Patrik Neuendorf

[E152] Clutch Minimum Power:
A basic feature in Ex and all older jigging machines is that the motor can run with full speed without any wheel (or clutch) power when DRAG is set to zero.

When increasing DRAG from 0, power is applied to the clutch only, and will eventually make the clutch stop slipping and the motor will stop rotate(caleld "stalling point"). Adding more DRAG will still add power to clutch only untill the DRAG reaches/exceeds the value of [E152] Minimum Clutch Power. This ensures that the clutch always got higher torque then the motor to prevent slipp.

Adjusting the value:

  • If the [E152] is set too low, the follwwing will happend.
    • Motor will never stall beacuase it will have more power then the clutch.
    • Unwanted wear will occure in the cluth and produce noise and heat.
    • Much higher current consumption in Ex when motor runs and not stalling.
    • Much more temperature in power electronic.
  • If the [E152] is set too high.
    • The gap between the value of DRAG from where the motor stalls, se "stalling point" above, to when it reaches the value of [E152] is a "ded" area where no more wheel power is applied. This gap is needed to secure that the clutch does not slipp, but too big gap is unwanted.

Note! The [E152] does not affect the maximum wheel power. 100% DRAG is always full power .


Factory set value is 16%
