Electromagnetic Clutch Brake Combination, CBC

Cryotron Magnadrives offers an Electromagnetic Clutch Brake Combination, CBC Series. The units in this series are pre-assembled in an enclosure with split shafts at both ends. DC voltage is applied to clutch and brake intermittently to achieve start-stop cycle. The design is sturdy and compact. The clutch and brake coils are normally off type and energized when DC voltage is applied to the either coil. The unit consists of a dual plate floating armature. The movement for brake or clutching is achieved by sliding on gear hub. When voltage is applied to clutch coil it attracts armature assembly towards the rotor and torque is transmitted to the output shaft by the armature and it rotates. When the supply to the clutch is discontinued it is instantly diverted to the brake coil. This in turn results in the clutch shaft being isolated and the output or brake shaft being stopped from revolving. The intermittent cycle achieved is very quick in response and thus high frequencies can be achieved. It is used in applications where high start stop cycles are required. CBC and HSCBC series clutches are available in torque range from 6 nm to 480 nm in 7 sizes. Torque transmission is free of any backlash. The company also offers Clutch Brake Combination Unit, CBC Electromagnetic Encased Clutch-brake Combination-Type, SMC Electromagnetic Shaft Mounted: Clutch -Type: (Normally Off), ECL Electromagnetic Clutch (Normally Off), FBR Electromagnetic Spring-applied Fail Safe Brake, etc.
