Categories Related to Brake Rollers
A brake roller is a type of roller equipped with an integrated brake mechanism.
Brake rollers are used in a wide range of applications, such as production lines, where the centrifugal force of the brake shoes built into the roller spreads out to control the speed of sliding. As this force is directly proportional to both the weight of the sliding workpiece and its speed, it allows for smooth control of the sliding motion without the need for electrical power. However, it is crucial to consider the direction of rotation and the height positioning carefully during installation.
Brake rollers are used on production lines in factories. They are also used on inclined shelves, such as flow racks for first-in, first-out inventory control. In office equipment like printers and professional scanners, they function as control parts for media feeding.
In contrast to brake rollers, motor rollers require a power supply. Since they can be controlled, such as by detenting the drive, they can be used in production lines with height differences. However, the control design is complicated because the appropriate braking function must be applied in addition to the line control.
