Wear - What Wears in Electromagnetic Brakes

Learn the common causes of wear for "fail-safe" brakes and how to prevent wear for safe use.

Resin Fiber Discs perform aluminum grinding operations.

Resin Fiber Discs resist loading and ensure constant grain contact with work surface. Discs are used for weld blending, grinding, deburring, and finishing on aluminum surfaces. They are offered in Twist-lock and Posi-grip styles for air tools and with 7/8 in. arbor hole for electric tools. Discs do not require grease sticks.

Drivers/Stepping Motors include built-in resolver.

AlphaStep PLUS programmable systems are offered with motors in 1.65, 2.36, and 3.35 in. sq frames sizes for round shaft models or 3.54 in. sq for geared models. Holding torque range is 41.5 oz-in. to 327 lb-in. Driver-controller platform can be programmed in positioning, mechanical home seeking, continuous motion and electrical home seeking modes. Software allows user to control and link up to 14...

Variable Speed Drive offers fixed/variable dual setpoints.

PumpSmart 200 v2.1 requires 7 parameters for set up and start of single pump pressure control applications. Unit also allows users to start up to three fixed speed pumps. Microprocessor based, variable speed drive is programmed for centrifugal pumps up to 700 hp, providing control of process parameters by continuously monitoring and reacting to pump conditions/system demands. Unit alerts user...
