Brakes for Cobots

During periods of holding, the brakes of the cobot engage. Accordingly, power is saved. At the same time this provides a safe environment for the collaborative worker.

Kendrion Servo Slim Line spring-applied brake is used in automated guided vehicles and robotics — The Servo Slim Line is extremely flat and has a large inner diameter for routing the cabling through the shaft.

Electromagnetically actuated brakes are designed to bring a moving load to a standstill and hold it or to fix the position of an inactive load. The closing or opening of the brake usually must happen in a split of a second to be able to brake loads quickly and safely in high-frequency applications.

The Servo Slim Line spring-applied brake was designed primarily for applications with hollow shafts and small installation spaces. The "slim" single-disc brakes are flatter and lighter than the market standard in relation to their power density. Their large inner diameter makes them perfect for hollow shaft drives where the cables are routed inside through the joint or for applications where only minimal installation space is available.

This video shows how our Servo Slim Line spring-applied brake functions in a cobot joint. It is extremely flat and has a large inner diameter for cable routing, making it perfect for cobot applications.

In the event of a power failure the brakes engage. The robot remains in position, and the gripper remains closed, so that there is no damage to the workpiece. Production can continue seamlessly from the point where it was stopped.

To ensure safety of man and machine, the robots engage their brakes and stop in position in emergency situations. This allows the process to continue smoothly.
