Carpanelli DC brakes: safety, precision and reliability

In the world of industrial automation, safety and control of mechanical movements are fundamental elements.

Carpanelli manufactures its own DC spring-applied electromagnetic brakes in-house. These brakes are suitable for Carpanelli electric motors, but can be installed wherever movement needs to be stopped.

Carpanelli DC brakes are the ideal solution for ensuring rapid stopping, precise positioning and maximum reliability, even in the most demanding applications.

Designed and manufactured entirely in Italy, Carpanelli brakes stand out for their robustness, quietness and durability, offering a perfect balance between technology and operational safety.

What are DC brakes used for?

Direct current (DC) brakes are mainly used in self-braking motors to lock the motor shaft quickly and safely, both in the event of a controlled stop and in the absence of power.

Thanks to this technology, the motor can maintain a stable position even when the motor is off, preventing unwanted movements and ensuring a high level of safety in industrial applications.

Carpanelli DC brakes

Carpanelli DC brakes are designed to offer high performance, reliability and customisation according to application requirements.

Main technical features:

- DC power supply via rectifier built into the motor or external
- High braking torque with customised adjustment
- Quiet operation
- Minimal maintenance and long operating life
- Precise and safe stopping even in emergency conditions
- Compact and robust structure, can be integrated into different motor configurations
- Immediate intervention in the event of a power failure
- Option of manual release lever

Industrial applications of Carpanelli brakes

Carpanelli DC brakes are used in a wide range of industrial sectors where motion control and safety are essential.

Among the main applications: electric motors, lifting and handling machines, automation and industrial transport systems, machine tools, packaging and wrapping systems, food and pharmaceutical sectors.

Carpanelli self-braking motors

DC brakes are perfectly integrated into Carpanelli self-braking motors, a range of motors designed to guarantee safety, precision and rapid response.

The motor + brake combination is a compact and reliable solution, ideal for industrial machinery where the following are required: precise stops, rapid restarts, controlled positioning and quiet operation.

Carpanelli self-braking motors are available in numerous customisable versions, including with integrated inverters for electronic speed and torque control.

Choosing Carpanelli Electric Motors means choosing quality, experience and innovation Made in Italy, with tailor-made solutions for every industrial application.
