Clutch/brake units are designed for extremely fast response, high cycles applications. Because of a special no gap armature design, there is no need to adjust for wear. Units are self adjusting and there is a consistent time to speed and time to stop. Low inertia components and low voltage fields allow for very fast response time. Small units are designed with finned housings to provide superior cooling. Additional friction materials like ceramics can be used to significantly increase overall cycle life.
NO ADJUSTMENT FOR WEAR
Special armature and hub design allow for automatic wear adjustment.
CONSISTENT TIMING
Special no-gap armature design produces consistent time-to-speed and time-to-stop over the life of the unit.
FAST RESPONSE
Special coil and armature design allow for extremely fast response time.
HIGH HEAT DISSIPATION
Fins on the outer housing in small units and the location of the internal clutch and brake provide maximum heat transfer for optimum cooling.
LONGER LIFE VERSIONS AVAILABLE
Standard components allow for long cycle life. Optional friction material, such as ceramic, are available to further enhance cycle life.
