Permanent magnet brake - PM Line

The High Torque series combines the well-known properties of permanent magnet brakes - Due to a re-design of the magnetic circuit, it features further advantages such as a higher torque at identical size and power consumption, high torque constancy throughout the complete service life and an extended temperature range. The High Torque brake is designed to operate dry. The force generated by a permanent magnetic field is utilised to produce the braking effect. To neutralise the braking action, the magnetic flux of the permanent magnets is cancelled by an alternate electromagnetic field (electromagnetically released system). The zero backlash connection between the armature and flange hub ensures zero backlash transmission of the brake torque to the machine shaft (e.g. motor shaft) and reliable release of the High Torque brake with zero residual torque. Thanks to these features, High Torque brakes are ideal for servo motor applications.

Kendrion (Aerzen) Mini Permanent magnet brakes open electromagnetically. The braking torque without backlash is generated by permanent magnets. The brakes can be installed in any position. High quality magnets ensure safe functionality. The rated torque is achieved immediately at the time of delivery without any running-in procedure.

The spring-applied single-disc brakes in the Servo Line series are designed to operate dry. They can be mounted to the A-face or B-face end shield inside the servo motor. The braking action generated by the compression springs is neutralized by applying the electromagnetic principle involving generation of a magnetic field. The brakes engage in unpowered condition and release when DC voltage is applied. The brakes are equipped with a flange and firmly fastened with screws. Thanks to a specially developed and patented manufacturing method, the rated air gap tolerance can be reduced to a few hundredths of a millimetre, providing enhanced power. Moreover, the brakes have a toothed hub/friction disc connection with minimal circumferential backlash. Standard version is suitable for flange mounting and face mounting.

The Slim Line includes spring-pressure single-disc brakes for brake discs mounted non-positive on the shafts to be retarded. The brake disc, which is permanently connected to the shaft, can be designed as a motor fan. Owing to the single-disc brake design, SLIM LINE brakes are particularly flat. Based on the working principle, residue-free lifting is achieved. Electromagnetically-operated spring-pressure brakes build up the braking torque when the current is switched off.
