The MagnaShear motor brake from Force Control Industries employs oil shear technology, providing longer service life even in demanding applications like the frequent start/stop cycles seen on cranes, hoists, winches, and other mobile material handling equipment.
- Oil shear technology transmits torque between lubricated surfaces thereby eliminating wear on friction surfaces
- Fluid recirculation system dissipates heat, eliminating heat build-up which is the most common problem in dry braking systems
- Elimination of wear significantly increases service life and virtually removes need for adjustment which also elongates maintenance intervals
- Well suited for applications where motor is reversed each cycle
- Oil shear technology provides smooth “cushioned” stop, reducing shock to the drive system and further extending service life of downstream components
- Totally enclosed design makes brakes impervious to moisture, dirt and dust
- Spring set torque ratings from 3 to 1,250 ft./lbs. are available
- Can be sized to correct torque independent of motor frame size or horsepower
- “Quick Mount” feature enables quick and easy mounting to drive motors in NEMA frame sizes 56 to 449
- Available pre-mounted on a motor for severe-duty applications
- Can be furnished to fit NEMA or IEC frame motor, as a complete motor and brake assembly, or to mount on a machine frame or other special mounting configuration
- Features seal integrity for harsh and washdown environments
