Hello,
I am an engineering student working on my senior design project. I have been assigned to design a hydraulic clutch engage/disengage system to replace the manual clutch system to be used primarily on wood chippers. I have had very little exposure to wood chippers and I would like to hear your thoughts on manual vs hydraulic systems.
Chipper Info
6.8L Ford V-10
Fuel: LPG - 280ft-lbs(continuous), 160HP
Hydraulic system concept
Push a button -> Clutch Engages
Thank you for your time
Nick
