Two independent brake circuits in one compact brake block
ROBA®-twinstop® brakes are spring-applied, electromagnetic safety brakes.
In de-energized condition, thrust springs press against the armature disks. The rotor with the friction linings is therefore held between the armature disks and the screw-on surface of the machine. The motor shaft is braked via the rotor.
Due to the magnetic force of the coil in the coil carrier, the armature disks are attracted against the spring pressure to the coil carrier. The brake is released, and the shaft can rotate freely.
