DESIGN AND THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF SINGLE PLATE CLUTCH BY VARYING FRICTION LINING MATERIALS
Keywords:
Single plate clutch, Friction lining materials, Asbestos, Sintered metalAbstract
This research paper has been related to the friction lining material in clutch plate. There are many
materials available in market like, Asbestos, Ceramic-metal, organic fabric, cast iron, sintered metal etc. but According to
market survey ASBESTOS is normally used as a friction lining material in clutch plate. But there are few problems in
asbestos friction plate like, high heat-generation and low co-efficient of friction. So, there is requirement of change the
material in clutch plate. Firstly change the friction lining material and redesign the clutch plate and after that different
experiment will be carried out with the different material in clutch plate. Here mainly focus on increasing torque
transmission capacity of clutch plate. According to results of different experiments, choose the best material for friction
lining of clutch plate.
