CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The brake stops and holds the motor rotor at predetermined positions, ensuring accurate positioning and preventing unwanted movement due to inertia or external forces, especially during idle periods or power loss.
In a fail-safe electromagnetic brake, when power is removed, springs press friction surfaces together to generate braking torque. When power is applied, the electromagnet releases the friction surfaces, allowing free rotation. This ensures the brake engages automatically during power loss.
Key parameters include braking torque (5–50 N·m), release time (0.05–0.15 s), engagement time (0.10–0.30 s), maximum speed (3000–6000 rpm), air gap (0.2–0.5 mm), supply voltage (24 V DC ±10%), and operating temperature (-40 to 85 °C). These must be matched to the motor's requirements.
The operating pressure follows and the protection class is rated per IEC 60529 (IP54–IP65). Always verify compliance with the legal manufacturer or supplier for the specific model.
