ABSSAC’S Efficient and Cost effective Electromagnetic Clutches and Brakes

ABSSAC’S range of electromagnetic clutches and brakes are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern machinery, providing exceptional performance in a compact form factor. Engineers and OEMs across various sectors, including packaging, printing, machine tools, and automation, can utilise these components for precise and cost effective control.

The range includes specialised variants designed for specific performance criteria:

  • BXR (Standard Clutches): General-purpose clutches offering reliable engagement and disconnection for a broad spectrum of industrial needs.
  • BXR LE (Low Energy Clutches): Ideal for standard coupling and disconnection applications, these offer rapid response times while consuming minimal energy.
  • BXH (High Performance Clutches): Designed for applications requiring higher torque capacity and superior heat dissipation, suitable for demanding, high-cycle environments.
  • BXW (Standard Brakes): Non-exciting brakes that are generally used to stop or hold a load when power is removed, ensuring a safe-failure mode.
  • Unitised Models (e.g., Butt-Shaft & Motor-Coupled): These significantly shorten installation time by eliminating complex gap and concentricity adjustments, making them a game-changer for rapid assembly.

The core benefits of the range include:

  • Compact Design: Offers a high torque-to-size ratio, allowing for integration into smaller and more complex machine layouts.
  • High Reliability: Engineered for long life and durability, ensuring minimal downtime and consistent operation in high-frequency cycling applications.
  • Versatile Operation: The complete range includes electromechanically-actuated clutches, electromagnetic brake units, and spring-actuated safety brakes, providing comprehensive solutions for braking, holding, and emergency stop functions.

"Our aim is always to provide solutions that make our customers' lives easier and their machinery more efficient," said Peter Wright, Mechanical Sales Engineer at ABSSAC.” This advanced line of clutches and brakes delivers the precise, repeatable control necessary for the next generation of automated systems, ensuring we have the perfect component for every requirement."
