FAQ

What is an ultra thin magnetic powder brake?

An ultra thin magnetic powder brake is a compact torque control device designed for space-saving industrial applications. It provides precise and stable braking force in web handling systems such as slitting, rewinding, printing, coating, and packaging machines where installation space is limited and high performance is required.

How does a magnetic powder brake work?

A magnetic powder brake works by applying DC current to an electromagnetic coil, which generates a magnetic field inside the brake chamber. The magnetic powder inside forms chain-like structures under the magnetic field, transmitting controlled torque. The output torque is proportional to the excitation current, enabling smooth and precise tension control.

What are the advantages of ultra thin design?

The ultra thin design offers several key advantages:

• Space-saving structure for compact machines
• Easy integration into limited installation spaces
