ABSTRACT:
A clutch or brake control system and method generates an electrical signal upon maximum torque transmission between the relatively displaceable parts of the friction device. This signal can be used as a reference point, changing with each application of the clutch or brake and with wear of the friction members thereof, which is utilized to trigger a controlled clutch or brake application process and may also be used to signal the end of a rapid-closure operation. Electronic circuitry is provided to store and process this signal.
