Application Area:

For many years a seawaterproof version of the SFB series has been used successfully on winch motors in ship building and as a safety, service or holding brake in wharf crane installations. Other application areas are its use in travelling, trolley and hoisting gear in crane construction, as well as in roller mills, smelters and off-shore installations in machine construction.

Mode of Function:

When the brake current is switched on, an electromagnetic field is built up and the spring tension of the brake is overcome. The corresponding sub-assemblies including the motor shaft can rotate freely. The brake is released. When the brake current is switched off or if a power failure occurs, the brake´s electromagnetic field collapses. The mechanical brake action is transferred to the motor shaft. The motor is braked. PINTSCH BUBENZER ensures the required safety.

Special Features:

  • A series of 63 to 10000 Nm
  • Strong magnetic circuit for bridging of a large air gap.
    • Large wear reserve
