How to choose the right brake: Electromagnetic brake, spring-applied brake or stainless steel brake?
When working with motors and machines, you may need brakes to keep things safe and precise. At BJ-Gear A/S we are experts in brakes, such as electromagnetic brakes, permanent magnet brakes and stainless steel brakes.
Electromagnetic brake:
Electromagnetic brakes use electromagnetic force to control how machines move. They can stop them when necessary. Brakes are necessary for situations where you need to be safe and in control. Thanks to the quality standards we apply to research and development, material selection, production and assembly, the new spring-applied brakes meet the highest requirements. These electromagnetically released brakes can be used wherever fast braking or controlled holding of inertial masses is required. As the braking force comes from compression springs, the braking torque generated by friction is available when no power is applied - even in the event of a power failure. The brake is released electromagnetically.
Dust and waterproof electromagnetic brakes
If you work in a place where there's a lot of dust and water, you need brakes that can handle it. Our electromagnetic brakes are made for this. They have a special cover that protects them from dust and water. You can choose from 10 sizes of these brakes. They are strong and reliable for outdoor use and rugged conditions. The brakes are easy to install.
Spring-loaded brake:
Spring-loaded brakes are often used as safety brakes, while permanent magnet brakes work through a permanent magnetic field that allows a tension-free connection of the axles.
The array of spring-loaded brakes includes:
- FDB series: A classic fail-safe brake available in different shapes for versatile applications.
- FDW Series: This fully enclosed brake that is water and dust proof to IP66 is used where requirements demand it.
Stainless steel brakes:
At BJ-Gear A/S, we understand that certain sectors require not only reliable braking systems, but also durability in the face of harsh environmental conditions. To meet these needs, we offer stainless steel brakes.
These brakes are built to last and continue to perform well in difficult conditions. They don't rust easily, so they're great for the food industry. They have a clean design with a smooth surface that makes them easy to install in your systems. They are very useful for marine, food processing and pharmaceutical industries. They work reliably and help you achieve your goals under strict conditions.
