Spring-applied brake BFK558 Sync

The BFK558 Sync was specifically developed for the next generation of high-efficiency motors. With up to 30% more braking torque in the same size, it combines higher power density with proven quality and long service life.

INTORQ BFK558 Sync – Built for the next generation of motors.

IE5 synchronous motors are setting new standards for efficiency and power density. More performance within the same installation space also places new demands on the brake. It must deliver higher braking torque without requiring additional installation space.

This is exactly what the BFK558 Sync was developed for. The new spring-applied brake delivers up to 30% more braking torque in the same size. Specifically designed to meet the requirements of modern IE5 synchronous motors, it combines high braking performance with simplified assembly and proven BFK technology.

New BFK558 Sync brake for efficient motor applications

Highly efficient IE5 synchronous motors are becoming increasingly important — especially in applications with high power requirements and continuous motor operation. Here, they offer decisive advantages thanks to their high energy efficiency and power density. At the same time, the demands on the integrated brake are increasing: It must provide high braking torques within a limited installation space.

The INTORQ BFK558 Sync was developed specifically to meet these requirements. Typical applications include intralogistics, material handling, and mechanical engineering — such as stacker cranes, hoists, crane systems, and automated conveyor systems. In these applications, the BFK558 Sync performs reliable holding functions and ensures safe emergency braking when necessary.
