Braking System targets hybrid/low-vacuum vehicles.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 07:06:15 -0500

Slip Control Boost 2 (SCB 2) brake technology, suited for regenerative and low vacuum powertrain vehicles, includes electro-hydraulic control unit (EHCU) and brake pedal simulator unit with twin master cylinder to supply brake pressure. Featuring minimized number of components, 12 V system also provides decoupled brake pedal for integration into autonomous or emergency braking systems. It can be integrated into vehicles from small cars to SUVs.

Arc Brake suits electromechanical applications.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Fri, 19 May 2006 08:04:41 -0500

Measuring 5 in. long, 30-Degree Arc Brake supplies 90 lb-ft torque, is spring applied, and electrically released. It has 4 stationary inner disks with friction pucks and 5 rotating outer disks. Steel magnet body and spring loaded armature plate attach to stationary surface. Energized coil compresses spring and attracts armature plate, allowing disks to rotate. Brake is also available as bi-stable, pulse operated brake or power-on brake.

Available in Quick-Mount versions, MagnaShear brakes come filled with oil and ready to mount, with no disassembly required. Brake's fan acts as quill clamping device, while pilotless design allows slide-on shaft mounting and brake self-centering. Brakes avoid heat and wear by operating friction surfaces in constantly circulating oil. Units are available in 9 spring-set torque ratings from 6â�"86 lb-ft and have max KE ranges from 7,967â�"26,500 lb-ft.
