DC Injection Brakes

The Solbrake is an ideal replacement for the old electrical braking systems including Reversing (which may result in reversing the motor rotation) or Regenerative braking (which requires resistors to absorb the energy).
The Solbrake can be used with auxiliary mechanical brakes, use the Solbrake to gently bring the motor speed to zero before operating a mechanical brake as the holding brake.

Advantages at a Glance

• Reduced stopping time - Increases production rate in machine tools and high inertia loads
• Reduced stopping time - For increased safety of hazardous machines
• Soft, smooth stopping, preventing wear and tear of mechanical parts
• Adjustable braking torque, matching load size and required stop time
• Auto stop, reducing motor heating
• Maintenance free, highly reliable operation
• Easy installation
