A few automatic transmissions do have clutches; however, the majority use a torque converter.
Clutches are useful in devices that have two rotating shafts. In these devices, one of the shafts is typically driven by a motor or pulley, and the other shaft drives another device. In a drill, for instance, one shaft is driven by a motor and the other drives a drill chuck. The clutch connects the two shafts so that they can either be locked together and spin at the same speed, or be decoupled and spin at different speeds.
In a car, you need a clutch because the engine spins all the time, but the car's wheels do not. In order for a car to stop without killing the engine, the wheels need to be disconnected from the engine somehow. The clutch allows us to smoothly engage a spinning engine to a non-spinning transmission by controlling the slippage between them.
To understand how a clutch works, it helps to know a little bit about friction, which is a measure of how hard it is to slide one object over another. Friction is caused by the peaks and valleys that are part of every surface -- even very smooth surfaces still have microscopic peaks and valleys. The larger these peaks and valleys are, the harder it is to slide the object.
A clutch works because of friction between a clutch plate and a flywheel, I can't really tell you about that without giving you the wrong information.

How much does it cost to replace the cluch in a 1999 ford ranger automatic transsmision?
automatic transmissions do not have clutches. If it is slipping it may need adjustment but probably will need to be replaced.
Does a 1991 Toyota 4x4 pick up automatic transmission have a clutch?
No, a 1991 Toyota 4x4 pickup with an automatic transmission does not have a clutch in the traditional sense, as clutches are primarily found in manual transmissions. Instead, automatic transmissions use a torque converter to manage power transfer between the engine and the transmission without the need for a manual clutch pedal.
Do all industrial forklifts have clutches?
No, not all industrial forklifts have clutches. Most modern forklifts, particularly those with automatic transmissions, do not use traditional clutches like those found in manual vehicles. Instead, they utilize hydraulic or electronic systems to manage power and control movements. However, some older or specialized models may still feature clutches.
Did 1992 rangers have automatic transmissions?
Yes , automatic or manual transmissions
Where are electromagnetic clutches used?
Electromagnetic clutches are commonly used in automotive applications, such as in automatic transmissions, air conditioning systems, and power steering systems. They are also used in industrial machinery, printing presses, and packaging equipment for engaging and disengaging rotating components.
What are the different types of mechanism to engage primary moving engine and transmission?
There are several mechanisms to engage the primary moving engine and transmission, including manual clutches, automatic transmissions, and continuously variable transmissions (CVTs). Manual clutches allow the driver to control engagement through a pedal, while automatic transmissions use hydraulic systems to shift gears without driver intervention. CVTs provide a seamless transition between gear ratios for smoother acceleration. Each mechanism has its advantages in terms of control, efficiency, and performance.
Why would a ford bronco with edit E4OD transmission slip in first gear?
It would most likely be a/ worn clutch/s or a shift solenoid. ( yes!!! automatic transmissions have clutches)
What type of transmissions are there?
manual and automatic transmissions.
Why are the clutch friction plate perforated?
Primarily clutch friction plates perforated for cooling. In automatic transmissions and other wet clutches, the holes distribute oil. In both wet and dry clutches, the holes also allow wear particles to “escape” the friction surface and to get them out of the way.
What is a clutch on a automatic transmission?
since clutches are used in manual transmissions, automatic trans vehicles have whats called a torque converter and is a type of fluid coupling. its between the engine and trans allow the vehicle to come to a full stop without stalling the motor.
What type of electromagnetic clutch is used in late model vehicles?
Late model vehicles typically use electronically controlled electromagnetic clutches, which are more efficient and responsive compared to traditional mechanical clutches. These clutches allow for precise control of torque transfer and are often used in applications such as automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive systems in modern vehicles.
How do the clutches work in an automatic transmission?
