Thruster & Thruster Brakes

Product Details:

Thruster Brake is a device to retard the speed of moving machinery and to stop it accurately to the desired position. The breaking force is applied to the brake shoes by a pre stressed compression spring.

The shoes press on the rotating brake drum retarding its speed, and finally stopping it. Other release devices like pneumatic / hydraulic cylinder or manual release arrangements can be offered on request.

Product Details:

EMG Electro Hydraulic Thrusters made by EMG are predominantly employed in heavy lifting equipment and conveying equipment all over the world. In combination with modern drum and disk brakes they ensure safe and gentle braking.

The safety of people and machines alike during braking procedures as well as in emergency or power failure situations depend to these reliable units.
Continual innovative further development are characteristic for ELDRO and ELHY thrusters which have been produced for 60 years by EMG.

The advantages of Electro-hydraulic brake thrusters are:

• Long useable life up to 10 million switchings
• Valves and damping springs for smooth performance
• Digital switches and analogue sensors for status indication/brake monitoring
• Designed for frequency controlled operation
• Forces from 120N up to 6300N
• Strokes from 40mm up to 160mm
• Variable mounting position
• Reliable corrosion protection
• Explosion proof series
• Specification for frosty environment
• Specification for foundries and steel mills

Product Details:

Electro Hydraulic Thruster is a device which develops linear thrust (or force) required to operate the desired mechanism. The Thrusters are widely used to actuate thruster shoe brakes, commonly used in material handling equipments. Thrusters are available in various models.

Thruster Brake is a device to retard the speed of moving machinery and to stop it accurately to the desired position.
