Magnetic Powder Brake

A magnetic powder brake is a controllable braking component used in unwind, rewind and tension-control sections of roll-to-roll production lines. By adjusting excitation current, it provides smooth and stable braking torque to help maintain web tension during printing, coating, laminating, slitting and converting processes.

Key Selling Points

  • Smooth adjustable braking torque through excitation-current control.
  • Fast response and stable torque output for continuous roll-material production.
  • Simple structure with low noise, low vibration and easy maintenance.
  • Suitable for unwind and rewind tension control in printing, packaging, film, rubber, textile, wire and cable, coating and laminating lines.
  • Can work with tension controllers and tension sensors to form a closed-loop tension-control system.

Working Principle

When current is applied to the excitation coil, magnetic powder inside the brake forms particle chains under the magnetic field. These chains transmit torque between the rotating and fixed sides. Changing the excitation current changes the transmitted torque, allowing the machine to control braking force smoothly.
