Electromagnetic safety brakes in d.c., spring loaded and with double braking surface, for general use, whose braking action is exercised in the absence of current.
In the absence of current, the loading springs (2) press the armature (5) on the brake disk (4) integral in rotation to the drive shaft via the hub (8), exerting the braking action; in the presence of current, the armature is attracted to the brake body (1) against the force of the springs, releasing the braking disc and allowing the shaft to rotate.
The brake is hermetically sealed on the outside diameter and has a value of airgap predetermined and controlled that doesn’t need any adjustment.
The brake body is entirely of steel with phosphate treatment.
The precise mechanics, together with the careful selection of a high-performance friction material obtained by molding directly on the disc and not glued (thus avoiding cases of failure and breakage), make the brake extremely quiet and efficient even under severe conditions of operation.
Maintenance
No maintenance is required up to the limit of wear of the disc.
