Electromagnetic brakes operate through an electric actuation, but transmit torque mechanically. These brakes can be used either wet or dry, which makes them ideal to run in multiple speed gearbox applications. In heavy vehicles like cranes, road rollers etc and industries like textile, plastic, lathe, printing industries etc.
The multi disc brakes operate directly on the hoist drum. They are largely used in hot metal cranes, port cranes etc. Electro-magnetic friction brakes are ideal for applications in elevators, forktrucks/agv's, hoists, machine tools, robotics, material handling.
Multi-disc brakes designed to handle higher energy loads with torque adjustments, and are available in applications requiring low to high torque. They are available in a wide range of designs as for diverse applications in factory automation to construction, mobile, industrial machinery etc.
The various types of electro-magnetic brakes available are; electro-magnetic friction, multi disc brakes, single or multiple brakes etc.
