Brakes - Import export

Product characteristics of the centrifugal brakes The centrifugal brake generally works like a centrifugal clutch, but with the housing secured against twisting. A centrifugal brake generally does not brake to standstill but only keeps the revolutions constant. Typical applications for centrifugal brakes are roping-down devices, cranes, lifts, safety gates, and also speed limiters. Areas of use for centrifugal brakes Centrifugal brakes are often used as backup brake systems for electronic brakes. They have the advantage of braking reliably and securely, independently of any other power supply. We supply the centrifugal brake without a housing if the customer already has a brake housing, too.

A drive motor can also act as a generator. If the drive system is built so as to allow reverse power to flow then this power can be fed into a resistor, thus taking energy out of the system and causing whatever is driving the motor to slow down. Following to this the braking resistor converts the stop energy into heat. Electrical drive systems are being used more and more on ships, oil rigs, crane barges and offshore vessels of all types. An important benefit from using an electric drive is that reliable systems of regenerative and dynamic braking resistors are available to complement or replace traditional mechanical braking systems. The advantages of electric braking include control, reliability, mechanical simplicity, weight saving and in some cases the opportunity to make use of the regenerated braking energy. The Braking Resistor Units from Klöpper Therm are designed according to specific applications.

CSN® Braking Resistors are used for controlled braking of every kind of electrical drives. Braking resistors convert the energy of drives into thermal energy which will be dissipated into the corresponding cooling medium. Design variations with natural or forced air cooling are available. CSN® Braking Resistors can be delivered with an indirect water cooling system using an airwater heat exchanger as well. The design of the CSN® Braking Resistors is particularly suitable for use in maritime applications. Schniewindt, as global market leader in this resistor sector, has a wealth of experience in the design according to the technical guidelines and rules of international classification societies for example

The braking fluid thermocouple from Therma convinces not only with its compact construction but also with its simple installation. Just screw it in in-place of the air vent screw to measure the temperature of the brake fluid. The subsequent sheathing line can then be comfortably bent in the required direction. When the thermocouple is screwed in, the braking system is then vented through its thread. The temperature measurement of the brake fluid, along with the brake disc surface measurement, also supplies important control values for a successful and safe race. During long races or races with many downhill routes, the brake disc overheats over-proportionally. The accruing radiation heat during this has a direct effect on the brake fluid, respectively heats it up. Depending on the type of brake fluid being used, it already reaches its boiling point at approx. 140–260 °C.

Wherever there is only a very limited installation space available and a powerful brake is still required, we are sure to be “new fans”. Developed from the requirements of the industrial truck industry, the advantages of the BFK551 will certainly also make you curious in intralogistics and in the area of all general motor applications!

The High Torque series combines the well-known properties of permanent magnet brakes - Due to a re-design of the magnetic circuit, it features further advantages such as a higher torque at identical size and power consumption, high torque constancy throughout the complete service life and an extended temperature range. The High Torque brake is designed to operate dry. The force generated by a permanent magnetic field is utilised to produce the braking effect. To neutralise the braking action, the magnetic flux of the permanent magnets is cancelled by an alternate electromagnetic field (electromagnetically released system). The zero backlash connection between the armature and flange hub ensures zero backlash transmission of the brake torque to the machine shaft (e.g. motor shaft) and reliable release of the High Torque brake with zero residual torque. Thanks to these features, High Torque brakes are ideal for servo motor applications.

The EEX Line includes spring-pressure single-disc brakes provided with explosion protection for explosion-hazardous areas. The spring-pressure brake with firedamp protection is suitable for underground excavations with danger of firedamp. In spring-pressure brakes with explosion protection, those parts which might ignite explosive mixtures are incorporated in a housing. If the mixture inside the housing explodes, the latter prevents a transfer of the explosion to the mixtures surrounding the housing. The brake is equipped with four thermal circuit breakers and one micro-switch. The micro-switch prevents starting against the unlifted brake. The thermal circuit breakers are series-connected with the micro-switch and interrupt the control circuit of the machine as soon as there is an inadmissibly high temperature at the brake. The brake is seawater-resistant. By means of the attached hand lifting feature, the braking effect can be manually neutralized.

Kendrion (Aerzen) Mini Permanent magnet brakes open electromagnetically. The braking torque without backlash is generated by permanent magnets. The brakes can be installed in any position. High quality magnets ensure safe functionality. The rated torque is achieved immediately at the time of delivery without any running-in procedure.

The main characteristic of the magnetic particle clutch is the possibility to smoothly change the torque depending on the field voltage. To transmit the torque from the external to the internal rotor, specifically alloyed and highly abrasion-resistant iron particles are inserted into the particle gap. Depending on the electromagnetic field, these fine iron particles build magnetic chains and thus transmit the torque. The power of the field determines the stability of the particle chains and also the transmittable torque.

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.

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.

Our reliable clutch/brake combination units are often used in synchronized facilities with mains synchronous input speeds. That’s because they are durable, easy to maintain and can be used in any installation position. The brake and clutch are within a compact housing. This ensures a simple and quick assembly process for you. And, thanks to INTORQ's patented wear adjustment mechanism, the air cap can be quickly adjusted.

High braking torque and small installation space: The compact and powerful BFK464-R dual-circuit spring-applied brake from INTORQ does it economically. This brake works with a split armature plate and two independent coil circuits. It reliably complies with the legal requirements for redundancy, such as for use in passenger elevators. In addition to the reliable braking torque, the high switching dynamics add even more safety. Switching noises are kept to a minimum. This is achieved by the well-engineered damping system. Another plus is the compact design: The rotor neck only minimally protrudes into the motor bearing shield, and the gear teeth of the rotor are particularly short.

When operating in crane and port facilities, a braking system must primarily be reliably protected and, secondly, must operate very powerfully. The INTORQ BFK 471 product series combines these two features perfectly. These specially sealed brakes have a newly designed hand-release mechanism which, like the brakes themselves, is IP66 compliant. This series also features high braking torque and requires only a compact installation space.
