TB Series Basic Tension
Annular style 24 VDC tension brakes for light to medium duty unwind
tension applications.
- Sizes: 1.7" to 15.25" diameter
- Torque range: 0.50 lb.ft. to 256 lb.ft.
- Thermal range: .019 HP to 1.09 HP
|

 |
Basic Tension Brakes
Single disc friction electromagnetic brake. Operates with any Warner
24V or 90V control. Very economical. Excellent life when properly
sized. Narrow to medium width web machines such as business forms
presses. Also good on wire pay-offs. A low-cost alternative in many
applications. |
|
ATT Series Advanced Technology
Designed for intermediate web tension ranges. Three size ranges.
- One piece clutch design for easy shaft mounting
- Brakes are flange mounted and the armature is the only rotating
member.
- Clutch torque ranges 7 to 41 lb.ft. Brake torque ranges from
8 to 62 lb.ft.
- Replaceable friction faces and armature rings.

Warner Electric Advanced Technology Brakes &
Clutches
The tension version of the popular Warner Electric Advanced Technology
clutches and brakes. Economical and easy to install. The clutch has
an easily adaptable pulley mounting. Operated by full family of Warner
Electric tension controls, 24V and 90V. Light tension on narrow web
paper or plastic film, such as bag making machines and printing presses.
Clutch provides a good, economical with overcurrent solution on many
winders. |
|
MTB Series Modular Tension
- 10", 13", 15" and 20" diameters
- Torque ranges to 1120 lb.ft.
- Thermal capacities to 8 HP
- Brakes rebuildable by changing only friction pads
and armature disks.
|

 |
Modular Tension Brakes
Single or double disc electromagnetic brake uses multiple pucks for
precise selection of torque range. Unique design provides up to double
normal operating torque for E-stops. Works with all Warner Electric
24V tension controls. The work horse of the brake line. Wide dynamic
torque range. Good for business forms presses, wire pay-offs, slitters,
coaters. Excellent choice with overcurrent for closed loop as well
as open loop systems. |
|
Permanent magnet brakes and clutches
are ideal for light tensioning applications, such as film and fine
wires. They require no external power, have a wide range of torque
adjustment, have no friction surfaces to wear, and offer chatter-free
torque control even at very low speeds.
- Torque range from 1 oz.in. through 65 lb.in.
- Manual torque adjustment
- Constant torque with varying speeds.
|

 |
Permanent Magnet Brakes &
Clutches
These units can be used as either clutch or brakes. They operate with
permanent magnets, thereby requiring no external power source. Very
accurate torque control is manually adjustable. Excellent problem
solver for difficult light tension applications. Particularly good
for nip-roll control where diameter compensation is not required.
Perfect solution for wire braiders and twisters where pay-off is spinning.
No control required. |
|
Magnetic Particle
Self-contained magnetic particle clutches and brakes for a wide range
of unwind/ rewind applications offer smooth operation at very low
speed and electronic control compatibility.
- Torque range from 2 lb.in. through 578 lb.ft.
- Shaft or flange mounting
- Fan cooled in largest sizes.
|

 |
Magnetic Particle Brakes &
Clutches
Very precise torque control in an enclosed unit that does not have
friction discs, but employs magnetically charged powder that varies
torque according to current. Works with all Warner Electric 24V tension
controls. Excellent solution where wear particles of friction disc
units cause a problem. Very precise torque regulation. Will operate
with great accuracy at lower speeds than friction disc units. Staying
within thermal capacity is critical for long life. |
|
Mistral
Mistral Pneumatic Tension Brakes' compact design meets the special
needs of the corrugating industry.
- Fan cooled for longer life
- Three sizes for multiple applications
- Torque range: 1 lb.ft. to 442.5 lb.ft.
- Thermal capacity to 3.5 HP
- Three sizes from 9" to 16" diameter.
|

 |
Pneumatic Brakes
The Mistral combines high thermal capacity with a rugged, easy-to-maintain
design. No guard is required. Both open and closed loop controls available.
Optional cooling fan increases heat dissipation. The brake of choice
in the corrugator industry due to long life and ease of maintenance.
Other converting industry applications apply equally. |
|
Magnum
Magnum unwind tension brakes are totally enclosed and require no external
guards.
- Four sizes
- Torque rating: 1.42 lb.ft. to 1180 lb.ft.
- Thermal range: 1.3 HP to 16.8 HP
- Integral fan cooling available.
|

 |
Pneumatic Brakes
High thermal capacity and easy to service this brake requires no guard.
Optional fan increase thermal capacity. Easily controllable in both
open and closed loop mode. This brake is well accepted among converting
equipment manufacturers worldwide. Slitters, coaters, and laminators
are but a few of the many applications. |
