Johnson CU and CX Series DC magnetic disc brakes are dust and drip protected, and the terminal box uses an IP55 enclosure. They are used for service duty (CU) or emergency stop duty (CX). Braking force: 809 to 50,600 lb (3.6 to 225 kN) […]

Twiflex’s Turning, Locking, and Braking System (TLB) integrates all three functions into a single system. This reduces costs, space required, and installation and maintenance time. The TLB system is fully designed and built in-house by Twiflex. Turning torques up to 334,850 lb-ft (454,000 Nm) […]

Johnson SMLB thruster brakes are constructed of fabricated steel with high temperature, non-asbestos friction linings. A variety of special options are available, such as mechanical release levers, high temperature assemblies, and explosion-proof designs. Torque range: 58 to 8,475 lb-ft (78 to 11,490 Nm) Typical […]

The Twiflex T40 brake is a split caliper, hydraulically applied design. The modules are mounted each side of a central mounting plate of the same thickness as the brake disc. Braking force: up to 10,116 lb (45 kN) Typical applications: Metals processing, conveyors, grinding […]

Twiflex VKSD modular brake calipers are spring applied, hydraulically released, and deliver greater braking force than the VCS. The two halves (modules) are mounted each side of a central mounting plate which is thicker than the brake disc. The VKSD-FL is a single module […]

The Twiflex VCS is a modular brake caliper which is spring applied and hydraulically released. The two halves (modules) are mounted each side of a central mounting plate of the same thickness as the brake disc. The VCS-FL is a single module option, for […]

Twiflex GMR series caliper brakes are available with pneumatically, hydraulically, or spring applied thrusters. Normally one or two calipers are used per disc, ideally mounted at 3 or 9 o’clock, but more can be used on larger diameter discs. Braking force: 1,348 to 8,093 […]

Twiflex MX series brake calipers are available with pneumatic, manual, or spring applied thrusters. Failsafe spring applied options are available in pneumatic, hydraulic, or electrically released models. MX calipers feature a patented link mechanism which ensures uniform pad wear. Braking force: 166 to 3,214 […]

Twiflex MR series brake calipers are available in a variety of actuation choices. Brake disc diameter, air pressure, and number of calipers per disc can be varied to meet your application requirements. Calipers should ideally be mounted horizontally at the 3 or 9 o’clock […]

Control panels from Power Electronics are ready-to-go and pre-wired for easy installation. PE control panels come factory inspected and fully tested. Explosion-proof options are available for applications requiring NEMA Type 7/9 enclosures. Operating range: 208-230, 385-415, 460, and 575 VAC Typical applications: Overhead crane […]
