Magnetic particle brakes & clutches

The Controller 14.422 serves to excite the magnetic particle clutches and brakes. The excitation current can be influenced by a dancer potentiometer or a master voltage. The built-in current controller ensures that, despite varying coil temperature the current is constant. Other important features of the controller are: Setpoint integrator, control amplifier and temperature monitoring through an optional thermal switch at the magnetic particle clutch or brake. Should the body temperature become too high, the controller simply switches off.

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.

The VARIO LINE includes DC spring-pressure single-disc brakes, which can be matched to the individual application due to a wide range of variants. Electromagnetically-operated spring-pressure brakes build up the braking torque when the current is switched off. By means of the electromagnetic force or an additionally mounted hand lifting device, the braking effect can be neutralized. Fitting dimensions and the grading of the type series of the VARIO LINE are matched to IEC motors.

Electromagnetic clutches and brakes of Kendrion (Aerzen) GmbH are easy to install and integrate into the machinery concept/layout with no setting up or running in. Kendrion offers a combination fitted on a hollow shaft for applications where clutches and brakes work together. The units are based on the successful magneta components. They are fitted on a through shaft. The unit is fixed using simply two screws and is ready for operation then. Electromagnetic clutches and electromagnetic brakes from Kenrion (Aerzen) GmbH transmit the drive torque and braking torque frictionally in dry running conditions. If a DC current is applied, the torque is transferred without backlash. Residual torque free ventilation in a de-energised state is ensured by the prestressed annular spring of the armature section. The clutches and brakes are suitable for every mounting position and require almost no maintenance.
