These motor breaks are available when you need them

This company has introduced a quick-ship program for MagnaShear motor brakes (photo), with parts ready for assembly in as little as a day. Brakeless brake motors from¾ to 5 hp are also in stock, so that assembled brake motors can be delivered quickly, eliminating supply chain concerns, and the need to use inferior dry friction-braking systems. MagnaShear motor brake assemblies feature oil shear technology, so they do not require regular maintenance or adjustment. With quiet, smooth operation and high accuracy and repeatability, they provide a long service life (typically 5 to 10 times that of dry friction brakes), says the company. — Force Control Industries, Fairfield, Ohio
