Safety brakes - Import export

Securing vertically moving masses Safety for oblique and vertical axes Typical applications include oblique-angled and vertical axes in the automation industry to provide vital protection of personnel and machinery. Series KSP For small to medium-sized loads DGUV-approved One load direction

The Elevation Line includes both DC spring-pressure single-disc brakes as well as spring-pressure double-disc brakes which comply with EN 81 (Safety Regulations Concerning the Design and Installation of Elevators). Integrated micro-switches allow for remote inquiry of the brake condition (armature position, wear, armature bearing). Owing to the patented safety concept, the otherwise mandatory testing of the dual-circuit braking system of the spring-pressure brake at the approval of the elevator system can be dropped. The brake can be used in places where short construction lengths with respective system components like motor, gear and brake must be realized. The Elevation Line is primarily used for elevators, but can be used wherever the brake must meet demanding safety requirements. Electromagnetic spring-pressure brakes build up the braking torque when the current is switched off.

The spring-applied brakes which are ideally suited for robotics is designed for robotics solutions and loads of up to appr. 20 kg, but it can also be used in other applications requiring small geometrical dimensions. With regard to their power density the slim single-disc brakes are flatter and lighter than the market standard, and due to their large inner diameter they are well suited for hollow-shaft drives. This makes them perfect for applications in lightweight robots with integrated drives. There is a growing demand for safety technology in order to avoid injuries by collisions, especially if the control technology or even the power supply fails. In this case electromagnetic brakes are usually the method of choice. As safety brakes they bring moving masses to a stop, keep loads in position and therefore prevent humans and material assets from being affected.
