Re: Clutches

Being a rookie I did not catch the <R53> prohibition of electro-MAGNETIC solenoids for linear motion. Too bad, since they are so useful for applying a strong, short-travel force from a small package at a cheap price. I wonder what the concern is about them to prohibit their use? They are integrated into virtually all machines, appliances, etc.
