The paper presents the study of the behaviour of safety mechanical clutches with shearing pins by numerically simulating the operation regimes for different types of pins and pin material. General analytical relations are derived for kinematic and dynamic modelling of the operation process. A software is developed in order to resolve by means of numerical methods the analytical relations, as well as to obtain graphs that emphasize the behaviour of the clutch during its operation. The software enables the determination of torque and limiting moment, as well as the selection of the desired geometric parameters. The static and dynamic diagrams can be plotted. The static and dynamic characteristics are drawn for the starting regime, take-up of moment shocks and load decoupling
