ZF Brakes and Clutches

ZF Brakes and Clutches provide a cost-effective, low maintenance solution for a range of applications. We are able to offer ZF Tiratron Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches which are suitable for all manufacturing processes where control of tension is important (e.g. wire, cable, paper and foil manufacturing), as well as ZF Single Disc Brakes and Clutches which can be used for drive circuits of systems with uneven loads or for the precise controlling of working cycles with high shift frequency.

ZF Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches

ZF Tiratron Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches

ZF Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches provide a cost effective simple solution in tension control applications. The exact control and unique combination of continuously variable contact free, and therefore wear free, torque transmission is ideally suited to all manufacturing processes where control of tension is required; for example, the production of endless products such as wire, cable, paper and foil.

Benefits include:

  • Solve all tension control problems
  • Non contact – wear free
  • Maintenance free
  • Continuously variable torque
  • Slip power up to 2000W
  • Simplified manual set-up
  • Open and closed loop control
  • Complete systems

ZF Brakes and Clutches

ZF Single Disc Brakes and Clutches

Thanks to their technical advantages, their respectively simple setup and their opportune outside dimensions, electromagnetically operated single-disk clutches and brakes are increasingly used for the automation of mechanical working processes. Their application ranges from the drive circuits of systems with uneven loads to the precise controlling of working cycles with high shift frequency.
