Gemco Electro-Thrust Brakes
Gemco Electro-Thrust Disc Brakes |
|
 |
The Electro-Thrust Disc Brakes are also AISE rated and come in sizes from 12 inch diameter discs up to 17 inch diameter, with torque values of 100 ft/lbs to 550 ft/lbs. These brakes are spring set for fail-safe operation with an electro-hydraulic actuator that overcomes a setting spring and releases the brake. The actuator is stroked by means of applying power, either AC or DC, to an integral motor attached to a twin cavity housing. The housing is filled with fluid and as the motor spins it creates fluid motion. As the fluid travels through the housing it applies upward pressure to a piston that overcomes the setting spring to release the brake. Cutting power to the motor reverses this function and the spring then gently sets the brake. |
Gemco Electro-Thrust Shoe Brakes |
|
 |
The Electro-Thrust Shoe Brakes have been in service for over 10 years. AISE sizes range from 8 inches in diameter up to 30 inch diameter wheels. Torque values range from 100 foot-pounds to 9,000 ft./lbs.! We also manufacture a line of non-AISE rated brakes. The brakes are spring set for fail-safe operation with an electro-hydraulic actuator that overcomes a setting spring and releases the brake. The actuator is stroked by means of applying power, either AC or DC, to an integral motor attached to a twin cavity housing. The housing is filled with fluid and as the motor spins it creates fluid motion. As the fluid travels through the housing it applies upward pressure to a piston that overcomes the setting spring to release the brake. Cutting power to the motor reverses this function and the spring then gently sets the brake. |
Gemco Solenoid Brakes - Solenoid AC Shoe Brakes |
|
 |
The solenoid AC shoe brakes are spring set and electrically released. The brake is set when power is removed from the brake solenoid assembly. Solenoid assemblies can be powered by 115 VAC thru 575 VAC, single phase. Brake wheel diameters ranging from 4 1/2 inches to 10 inches are available. |
Gemco Magnetic Brakes - Magnetic DC Shoes Brakes |
|
 |
The magnetic DC shoe brakes are spring set and electrically released. The brake is set when 230 VDC power is removed from the brakes coil(s). The type TM brakes electrical mechanism consists of one or two DC magnets. As power is introduced to the coils it creates an electro-magnetic field that brings the coils together to release the brake. Cutting power to the coils allows the spring to extend back to its normal state and sets the brake. Shunt or series coils are available and rated for continuous or intermittent duty ratings. We also offer single point adjustment on brakes 8 inches in wheel diameter or larger. This speeds up the brake installation and shoe lining wear adjustment by a single point adjusting feature. Brake wheel diameters of 41/2 to 30 inch are available, and are AISE rated. Rectifiers are available for AC operation. |
Gemco Hyrdaulic Brakes - Hydraulic Shoe Brakes |
|
 |
The hydraulic shoe brakes are spring released and hydraulically set for controlled stopping. Applications such as indoor and outdoor bridge cranes are just some of the examples. These proven high performance brake systems are tough, reliable and provide trouble free service. Brake wheel sizes ranging from 6 inches to 18 inches are available. Brakes are available either with standard hydraulic setting, setting with parking feature or with air powered hydraulic operation. The powered systems may be direct or remote controlled. Air remote control, hydraulic remote control, and electric remote control allow the customer the flexibility to satisfy most requirements. |
