A Servo Employing the Magnetic Fluid Clutch

Abstract
A simple servo unit is described. The device utilizes the electromagnetic fluid clutch developed by J. Rabinow of the National Bureau of Standards. Simplicity in design and construction, relatively high torque inertia ratio obtainable, and high power transmission capabilities appear to be the chief merits of such a servo system. Performance data on a prototype servo unit are submitted.
