Electromagnetic Brakes for Small Motors

Our electromagnetic brakes & clutches are compact, yet deliver the precise performance and high reliability essential for demanding applications and tight spaces. Ideal for small motors used in a variety of industries, these brakes provide optimal safety and operational control in the most restricted spaces.

Benefits include

Flexible integration: Suitable for different mounting options, either integrated or externally mounted
Space-saving design: Saves space without sacrificing performance
High power density: Extraordinary performance in a compact form factor

The application determines the brake

There are two electromagnetic braking principles that can be used in servo motors: permanent magnet brakes (integrated mounting) and spring-applied brakes (integrated or external mounting). The choice between these two systems depends on the specific requirements of the application.

Seamless integration into small electric drives for automated guided vehicles, providing navigation support, controlled stopping, and precision braking in confined environments.
