What are the application fields of electromagnetic brakes?

　　Electromagnetic brakes are ideal automatic actuators in modern industry, primarily used for power transmission and motion control in mechanical transmission systems. So, what are the applications of electromagnetic brakes?

　　What are the application fields of electromagnetic brakes?

　　1. Others: speed reducers, electroplating equipment, physical and chemical machinery, papermaking machinery, resin processing machinery, etc.

　　What are the maintenance methods for electromagnetic brakes?

　　1. Be sure to add lubricant to the moving parts of the electromagnetic brake.

　　2. Regularly check the length of the armature stroke. Because during the operation of the brake, the stroke length of the armature will increase due to wear of the cutting surface. When the armature stroke length cannot reach the normal value, it needs to be adjusted to restore the minimum gap between the moving surface and the disc. If the armature stroke length increases beyond the normal value, the suction force may be greatly reduced.

　　3. If replacing worn brake surfaces, the minimum gap between the brake surface and the disc should be adjusted again appropriately.

　　4. Regularly check the tightness of the bolts, especially the bolts of the electromagnet, the bolts of the electromagnet and the housing, the bolts of the yoke, the bolts of the electromagnet coil, and the connecting bolts.

　　5. Regularly check the mechanical wear of the moving parts and clean the dust, fluff, and dirt on the surface of the electromagnet components.

　　What is the structure of an electromagnetic brake?

　　The structure of an electromagnetic brake mainly consists of a yoke with a coil, an armature, a connecting plate, a spring, friction pads, a gear sleeve, etc. The spring is installed inside the yoke, and the armature can move axially. The yoke is fixed to the base by mounting screws to adjust the gap. After reaching the specified value, the gear sleeve is connected to the drive shaft via a key, and the outer teeth of the gear sleeve mesh with the inner teeth of the friction disc. When the coil is de-energized, under the action of the spring force, the friction disc generates friction with the armature and the base (or connecting plate), and the drive shaft is braked by the gear sleeve. When the coil is energized, the armature is attracted to the yoke under the action of the electromagnetic force, causing the friction disc to release, and the brake is released.
