Spring Engaged Brakes
Flange Mounted Friction Brakes for Power Off Holding
Function: Holding, Failsafe (Non-Cycling Applications)
Drive Arrangement: Machine Frame or Bracket to Shaft
Operation
- Spring pressure compresses drive and friction discs to produce a fixed amount of torque.
- The brake releases when energized with sufficient air pressure (see table below).
Mounting
- The brake flange bolts to a machine frame or other fixture, the shaft inserts into the bore and is fixed with a customer supplied key.
- Brake can also be mounted mid-shaft with the flange connected to a bracket.
- Spring engaged brakes are designed for horizontal mounting. If vertical mounting is required, consult engineering.
Applications
- Spring engaged brakes are designed for holding applications.
- Maximum RPM varies by model. Please consult the detail sheets (below). Consult engineering if the intended application exceeds the listed maximum RPM.
Design Features
- Spring engaged brakes are made-to-order with any bore size up to the maximum shown for easy installation.
- Drilled and slotted flange allows for variable installation arrangements.
- Low coefficient friction lining versions are available for applications requiring slip or a narrower torque range. Contact engineering for details.
Customization Options
All Mach III products can be customized to meet the needs of your application.
