Industrial Clutch & Brake Experts.
We don’t just distribute. We deliver value, vision, and results.
Orttech engineers, supports, and converts industrial clutch and brake systems across North America. When performance, safety, and uptime matter, manufacturers trust Orttech to deliver precision torque control.
Global Technology. Local Engineering.
Offering engineering support and services for every clutch and brake we deliver.
1. Engineered OEM Integration
We work directly with press builders and OEMs to integrate high-performance clutch and brake systems into new equipment designs. Our engineering team supports specification, torque calculations, and system optimization from concept through commissioning.
2. Competitive Conversions
Upgrading from legacy systems? We specialize in converting competitive clutch and brake assemblies to Ortlinghaus systems — improving reliability, thermal capacity, response time, and long-term performance. Our engineered conversion kits simplify installation while minimizing downtime.
3. Engineering & Application Support
Clutch and brake systems must be matched precisely to the application. Our engineers analyze torque requirements, duty cycles, slip energy, thermal loads, and performance constraints to ensure the correct solution. We speak engineer-to-engineer — because torque control is not guesswork.
4. Field Service & Instrumentation
From commissioning support to emergency diagnostics, Orttech provides hands-on technical expertise. Our team supports instrumentation, system tuning, and troubleshooting to keep presses and industrial drives running safely and efficiently.
5. North American Inventory & Technical Depth
With over $2MM in inventory and decades of application experience, Orttech delivers fast response backed by deep technical knowledge. When you call, you speak to specialists — not order takers.
