The lifespan of our screw jack series is primarily determined by the ball screw's lifespan and other components such as worm gears and worms; we mainly verify the ball screw's lifespan, while worm gears and worms are subject to wear, but generally have a longer lifespan than the ball screw. This lifting jack is widely used in high-precision environments and for high-end automated equipment.
Today's topic is the brake of the ball screw lifting mechanism. The brake of the ball screw lifting mechanism is a device used to reduce the speed or stop the transmission mechanism, an indispensable part of lifting equipment. It serves as a last line of defense for the elevator and is also a component. Therefore, users should frequently check the usage and wear of the brake during operation.
The working principle of the ball screw lifting mechanism brake is: one set of friction pairs is connected to the fixed frame, while the other set is connected to the rotating shaft of the mechanism. When the friction pairs come into contact and are tightened, braking action is produced; when the friction pairs are separated, the braking action is released, allowing the mechanism to move.
Ball screw lifting mechanism brakes can generally be categorized into normally closed and normally open types based on their working state.
