The spring-applied VIS brake is a versatile brake system that can be configured as a single or multi-disk setup, with two friction surfaces for each mounted disc. The braking torque is generated by the compression springs, which effectively lock the discs through friction. Electromagnetic release allows for quick and efficient brake disengagement. This spring-applied brake is specifically designed to convert mechanical work and kinetic energy into heat.

By choosing the VIS brake, creating an explosion-proof brake motor becomes effortless, resulting in reduced costs and delivery time. These brakes exhibit exceptional performance and a robust structure, making them suitable for heavy-duty applications in various fields such as hoisting, traveling, and positioning.

One notable advantage of VIS brakes is their low maintenance requirement, eliminating the need for periodic on-site gap adjustments.

The braking torque values range from 3 to 16,000 Nm (depending on frames and sizes), and the VIS brakes can be equipped with either AC three-phase electromagnets or DC with a built-in rectifier (depending on frames and sizes).

The cost of a standard explosion-proof motor combined with the VIS brake is considerably lower than that of an explosion-proof brake motor, while offering improved lead time and reliability. Please note that specific features such as electromagnet type, torque, and size depend on the frame and size configurations.
