Are dog clutch teeth supposed usually to have 90 degree flanks, or are they
sometimes inclined like an acme thread?
I have a power guillotine (4 foot x 1.6mm cut) that spins a flywheel with a
1.1kw motor, and pressing the treadle allows a dog clutch to engage via
spring pressure rotating eccentrics which pull the upper blade through the
material. Recently under full width cuts the clutch has taken to not fully
engaging, and jumping out of engagement. The flanks are obviously fairly
worn and need re-machining, but what shape to make them - they could have
been inclined or this could be the wear with them starting off
perpendicular - any suggestions?
