The FZB Bistable Brake can remain in braking or unbraking position without consuming power from an external source, all that is needed is a direct current pulse with a duration of the order of 100 milliseconds. The FZB Bistable Brake is a brake specially designed for situations where energy saving is sought. The fact of not consuming energy, except when switching pulses occur, makes the energy consumed and the heat dissipated much less than in any other electromagnetic brake. It is the only electromagnetic brake on the market that is activated with a simple impulse and changes from positive to negative. Its main applications are aimed at sectors in which it is important to minimize energy consumption, for example in battery-powered systems: Robots Electric wheelchairs Forklifts Golf carts Aerospace industry Automatic guided vehicles.
