As an intelligent transmission device, the magnetorheological (MR) clutch cannot realize its accurate torque control because it is difficult to establish its accurate torque control mathematical model. This paper designs a squeeze shear MR clutch. In order to achieve accurate torque control of the MR clutch, this paper proposes a fuzzy proportional integral differential (PID) control strategy based on the optimization of the bee colony algorithm. Based on the mechanical transmission experiment platform of the MR clutch, the performance of the torque control of the MR clutch is experimentally studied by using the real-time operating system Phar Lap ETS built by LabVIEW real-time module, it is found that the fuzzy PID control strategy based on bee colony algorithm can not only improve the torque control accuracy of the MR clutch by 70% compared to traditional PID control strategies but also increase the response speed by more than 50%.
