New Micro Brakes from Miki Pulley are Ideal for Small Precise Equipment Applications

Aug. 26, 2021

Fast braking response in small, precision torque applications are the primary benefit of Miki Pulley Micro Brakes. Where high performance braking for small motion control applications are required, these Micro Brakes provide the solution.

Miki Pulley’s ultra-compact brake design features a stator with integrated mounting flange, proprietary composite friction liner and armature complete with ring plate spring and hub.

Field proven, these Miki Pulley Micro Brakes halt rotation mechanically by utilizing an electro-magnetic field to connect friction surfaces, thus creating mechanical resistance. With fast response, the brake’s armature engages the stator when the coil is energized. A constant-force plate spring transfers torque to the rotating brake body halting all motion.

Additional features include: quiet operation, high holding torque for its size, space saving design configuration, long service life, stable and reliable braking power. Easily installed, these Miki Pulley Micro Brakes require no maintenance. They are available in three armature assembly options depending on application requirements.

Typical applications include: ATM’s, office copiers, weighing and packaging equipment, optical mechanisms, paper binding mechanisms and many othera.

112 Model Micro Brake specification range based on model selected:

  • Brake torque: 0.295 ft lb – 1.770 ft lb (0.4Nm-2.4Nm)
  • Backlash: Zero
  • Ambient Temperature: 14 F ~ 104 F; (-10 ℃ ~ 40 ℃)
