Medical technology: Automate processes safely with brakes from Kendrion

Automating processes in medical technology requires maximum precision and safety. After all, life and limb are at stake here. In concrete terms, this means "zero tolerance" for the movements performed and "zero backlash" for the brake technology used. Our permanent and spring-applied brakes are ideally suited for sensitive applications in medical technology. We have consistently advanced our product portfolio in parallel with the rapid technological development in this field and today offers customized solutions that meet the high requirements across the board.

Precise control for maximum safety

While autonomous driving is still in the pilot phase in road traffic, it is already common practice in the field of industrial trucks. The example of US manufacturer Bastian Solutions shows how this trend is affecting the design of industrial trucks and, as a result, the brake design. We have equipped Bastian Solutions CB18 automated guided forklift (AGF) with customized spring-applied brakes, which are characterized, among other things, by a finely tuned braking torque within a narrow tolerance band.
