A DC voltage \u2014 typically 24VDC \u2014 energises the coil inside the inductor body. The resulting magnetic field pulls the brake coil holder, lined with friction material, firmly against the rotating armature disc. The contact between lining and armature generates the braking torque and brings the shaft to a stop.<\/p>\n<p>Once voltage is removed, the spring-membrane built into the armature pushes the friction surfaces apart. This releases the brake and allows the shaft to rotate freely. The cycle \u2014 engage on current, release on spring \u2014 makes the FAE a positive-action electromagnetic brake, suited for applications where braking must be active and controlled rather than passive.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">FAE electromagnetic brake: key technical features<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Current-operated positive braking (energise to brake)<\/li>\n<li>Spring-membrane release for fast, consistent disengagement<\/li>\n<li>Three construction variants (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) for different mounting requirements<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Adjustable supply voltage for precise torque adaptation<\/li>\n<li>Compact design for space-constrained installations<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with most motor and gearbox manufacturers<\/li>\n<li>Braking torque range: 1.5 to 700 Nm<\/li>\n<li>Max. speed: up to 10,000 RPM (size 0.15)<\/li>\n<li>Operating voltage: 24 VDC (other voltages on request for FAE custom series)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Electromagnetic braking system: construction variants<\/h3>\n<p>The FAE is available in three construction variants to cover different mounting and integration requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Construction 1.1 \u2014 Basic brake unit. The armature and friction lining are assembled as a single unit and can be mounted directly onto a pulley or sprocket. Ideal when the brake must be integrated into an existing mechanical element.<\/p>\n<p>Construction 1.2 and 1.3 \u2014 These variants incorporate the armature and an aluminium bushing for direct shaft mounting. The bushing allows the brake to be installed at the exact point where braking torque is needed, providing a more versatile and adaptable solution.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Electromagnetic brake applications<\/h3>\n<p>The FAE electromagnetic brake is used across a wide range of industrial machinery where controlled stopping, holding, or positioning is required:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Packaging machines: precise stopping at each cycle, synchronised with filling, sealing, or labelling stations<br \/>\n&#8211; Product conveyors: controlled deceleration and holding at transfer points &#8211; Textile industry: tension control and stopping in winding and unwinding systems<br \/>\n&#8211; Machine tools: spindle and axis braking in CNC and machining centres &#8211; Industrial filling machines: repeatable stop-and-go cycles in liquid and<br \/>\npowder filling lines<br \/>\n&#8211; Cleaning equipment for buildings and facades: motor braking in gondola and platform drive systems<br \/>\n&#8211; Servo motor braking: holding torque when the motor is de-energised, preventing back-drive in vertical or inclined axes<\/p>\n<p>For applications requiring a fail-safe brake (spring-applied, released by current), see the FPC safety brake or the FNC pneumatic brake range.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">FAE vs OMB: which electromagnetic brake is right for your application?<\/h3>\n<p>Both the FAE (EIDE) and the OMB (Precima Magnettechnik) are 24VDC positive electromagnetic brakes sharing the same operating principle. The key difference is availability and customisation. The OMB is EIDE&#8217;s standard stocked product for the most common sizes and torque ranges \u2014 it ships fast. The FAE is manufactured on request when the application requires a non-standard bore, a specific torque value outside the OMB range, or a custom mechanical configuration that the standard line cannot cover.<\/p>\n<p>If you are unsure which series fits your application, contact our technical team with the shaft diameter, required braking torque, operating speed, and duty cycle.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\" style=\"overflow-x: auto;\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\n<thead>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\">\n<th style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\">Feature<\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 12px; border: 2px solid #0056b3; text-align: left; background-color: #e3f2fd;\">FAE Series (EIDE)<\/th>\n<th style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; text-align: left;\">OMB Series (Precima)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold;\">Status<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #f4faff;\"><strong>Custom \/ Bespoke<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\">Main Standard<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold;\">Availability<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #f4faff;\"><strong>Manufactured on Request<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; color: #28a745;\">In Stock (Fast Shipping)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold;\">Brake Type<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #f4faff;\">24VDC Positive<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\">24VDC Positive<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold;\">Engineering<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #f4faff;\"><strong>EIDE (Spain)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\">Precima (Germany)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; font-weight: bold;\">Best For<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd; background-color: #f4faff;\">Non-standard or special sizes<\/td>\n<td style=\"padding: 12px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\">Standard 24VDC applications<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Alternative Option: <a href=\"https:\/\/eide.net\/en\/producto\/omb-electromagnetic-brake\/\">OMB (PRECIMA Manufactured)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Need an electromagnetic braking system for a specific application?<\/h3>\n<p>Send us the operating conditions \u2014 shaft diameter, braking torque, speed, duty cycle, and mounting constraints \u2014 and our engineering team will specify the right brake for your machine.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff7a0d;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/eide.net\/en\/contact\/\">Contact our technical team<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff7f27;\">The FAE electromagnetic brake <\/span><\/strong>is a current-operated positive brake designed for industrial applications that require fast, precise, and repeatable stopping.
