3 Product Description
3.1 Scope of this Manual
This manual describes the installation and function of the COMBINORM Type 02 Brake,
as well as standard maintenance and troubleshooting procedures.
This manual covers the following brake models:
COMBINORM Type 02 Flange-Mounted Brake
COMBINORM Type 02 Shaft-Mounted Brake
3.2 Description
The COMBINORM Type 02 is a single face electromagnetic brake designed for dry
operation. The brake consists of a magnet assembly and an armature with built in flat
spring. The magnet and armature are installed with an air gap of width X between the
components. The magnet assembly is mounted on a solid surface or directly to the motor
while the armature is mounted to the rotating components; either directly to the shaft for
brakes with hubs or a rotating mounting surface.
When powered on the magnet attracts the armature plate to the friction surface
integrated into the magnet assembly providing backlash free braking torque.
When powered off the flat spring pulls the armature plate away from the friction surface,
releasing the brake and allowing free rotation of the armature and mounting surface.
