Reduced Torque Clutches, Brakes enhance narrow web converters.

Mach III Clutch Inc.    Ludlow, KY 41016
Apr 04, 2012 Driven at constant speed by primary drive of machine, SensiFlex® tension control clutches and brakes include 19 models with proprietary ULOW (ultra-low coefficient) friction facings. These single-surface, air-actuated friction devices maintain tension on roll of material - paper, film, foil, wire - as it is being unwound/rewound. Span of air pressure traversed to deliver torque required at core up to torque required at full roll (and vice versa) allows precise web tension control.

Power-Off and Fail-Safe Holding Brakes suit Pittman® DC motors.

AMETEK Technical & Industrial Products    Kent, OH 44240
Sep 26, 2011 Available for Pittman® brush-commutated and brushless DC motors, Power-Off and Fail-Safe Holding Brakes feature factory-set air gap, rigid molded friction disk, compression springs, and drive nuts with set screw. Power-off models suit parking brake applications with ability to decelerate and hold load in position when power is deactivated, while holding brakes promote fail-safe operation by requiring power for release. Depending on model, static holding torque from 1-3 lb-in. can be achieved.

Centrifugal Brake helps control manual rolling shutter doors.

Centrifugal Brake helps control manual rolling shutter doors.

Ogura Industrial Corp.    Somerset, NJ 08873
Jul 05, 2011 Model CFB Centrifugal Brake can prevent doors from freefall condition that can cause personnel injury or property damage. In normal speed condition, springs hold back brake shoes and door can be raised or lowered normally. In over-speed condition, brake shoes are applied by centrifugal force, slowing door down. Brake does not require any external controls and/or power sources. Additional applications include conveyors, hose reels, wire unwinding, and over speed protection in windmills.

Brake Management System targets agricultural machines.

Bosch Rexroth AG Industrial Hydraulics      Germany
Aug 05, 2009 Based on electrically variable pumps, zero displacement motors, and intelligent control electronics, Hydrostatic Brake Management System prevents diesel engine from overspeeding. Braking algorithm, which is stored in BODAS controller, moves pump back instantly when pressure is applied to brake pedal, reducing geometric displacement of pump accordingly. Pressure-relief valves fitted to all hydrostatic travel drives allow system to achieve braking effect greater than drag torque of engine.
