Hollow Shaft Magnetic Particle Brake
A hollow shaft magnetic particle brake is a device for braking or clutching devices with a hollow shaft design. Its outer shell is composed of cooling fins, stator, rotor, friction disc and friction block, the hollow shaft magnetic particle brake is a reliable, efficient and long-life brake. Its magnetically damped design makes it easier to precisely control the speed of rotating parts and can be used in a variety of applications.
The hollow shaft magnetic particle brake is composed of stators and rotors arranged alternately inside. When the current passes through the rotating part of the brake, the electromagnetic force will generate a magnetic flux between the stator and the rotor, so that the rotor is forced to push the stator.
The magnetic particle is sandwiched between the stator and the rotor, which makes them rub continuously; when the current is cut off, the magnetic flux disappears, and braking is realized.
The hollow shaft magnetic particle brake makes the torque increase steadily through the hysteresis effect. Compared with the traditional electromagnetic, electro-hydraulic and hydraulic brakes, the hollow shaft magnetic particle brake has a longer life and lower maintenance cost. At the same time, it also has the characteristics of fast response speed, which can be widely used in applications requiring high response speed, such as rotating machinery and industrial equipment.
Hollow Shaft Magnetic Particle Brake Heat Dissipation Sense
The hollow shaft magnetic particle brake will generate a lot of heat when running at high speed, so heat dissipation is very important. The following are some common sense about heat dissipation of hollow shaft magnetic particle brake:
- Keep ventilation: When the hollow shaft magnetic particle brake is installed, sufficient ventilation must be maintained for heat dissipation. Installing in a closed environment will affect the cooling effect, thereby affecting the performance of the brake.
- Sizing your brakes: Correct sizing of your brakes is very important. If the brake is too small, it will not dissipate heat effectively, causing the brake to overheat and shorten its life. If the brake is too large, it will waste resources and possibly complicate the system.
- Maintaining Your Brakes: Keeping your brakes clean and smooth is key to cooling. The brakes should be checked and cleaned regularly to ensure that the cooling fins and vents of the brakes are not blocked.
- Avoid Breaking Brake Temperature: Brakes should be operating within the manufacturer’s recommended temperature range. If the temperature is too high, the performance of the brake will be affected. If overloaded for a long time, or frequently overheated, the performance of the brake will be seriously damaged.
Maintaining ventilation, choosing the correct size, maintaining the brakes regularly, and avoiding overheating are the keys to keeping the heat dissipation of the hollow shaft magnetic particle brake.
