CLUTCHES AND BRAKES

VERSATILITY AND INDUSTRY EXPERTISE

Dometic's custom brake offerings include both electromagnetic and spring-loaded solutions to suit a range of applications. Both brake versions are designed to handle emergency events including being activated while underway to bring systems to arrest system movement. Friction surfaces can be tuned with specific spring forces to accomplish this task.

These designs can be highly integrated both in operation and form factor, ensuring precise, reliable performance, whatever the application.  Contact us today to get started on a solution expertly tailored to your needs.

ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKES

Electromagnetic brakes possess many advantages such as automatic loss of power braking, zero backlash, and long life. 

Dometic's customized electromagnetic brakes represent the pinnacle of both safety and reliability. These DC-powered brakes can support high torque loads while retaining their compact size. 

 

Whether power is accidentally lost or intentionally disconnected, Dometic's powered-off brake will engage immediately and prevent the motor from back-driving.

Designed and manufactured in-house, Dometic's electromagentic brakes provide superior performance.

SPRING-LOADED BRAKES

Dometic also designs and produces other brakes that employ springs rather than magnets for load retention.

 

These designs are actuated through a solenoid which can be tailored to customer specific voltage and current requirements.
