SAFETY BRAKES For rack and pinion lifts, hoists (people and material), elevators and all kind of machines The FPC safety brake is a mechanical unit designed to prevent accidental falls in lifting gear motorized or transmission sprockets. The system only engages when the speed is higher than a pre-determined value, normally the nominal speed. The sensors come into action by means of the centrifugal force, interlocking the non-driving pinion into the structure. This interlocking is a gradual process, and the moving part is locked once it has been engaged. When triggering the mechanism in the opposite...

CENTRIFUGAL BRAKES Type - EC For elevators EC centrifugal brakes control the rate of descent when this is made without a voluntary or accidental actuation of the engine. Its working principle is the centrifugal force. This force acts on masses that rub a static drum. As the centrifugal force is an exponential function of the speed, a balance between load power during the descent and braking power always occurs. The load will be maintained by balancing speed up to the stop or until a parking brake acts. Consequently, centrifugal brakes are not locking brakes but retaining Design The EC centrifugal...

FPC safety brakes applications: rack and pinion, drum and cable or gearbox It can also be applied to hinged doors, counterweights, palletizers, strapping machines, BMU’s, graphic arts machinery, radioactive material containers, motorized cable reels, machine tools and all lifting devices. Gearbox Motor Safety brake FPC Double Shaft Throw Hole Bidirectional Gearbox EC Centrifugal brakes applications with independent transmissions The gearbox and the centrifugal brake act as non-driving elements, without contributing any stress. They will only engage when there is an increase of speed that is higher...
