Our Range Of Electric Brake Motors

Searching for reliable rapid-stopping power and holding torque for your machinery? As a trusted industrial supplier, Engineers Mate stocks and distributes a comprehensive range of high-performance electric brake motors. Engineered with integrated electromagnetic brake units, these specialised motor assemblies deliver instant, repeatable braking and static holding capabilities essential for safety-critical and high-precision applications.
Our extensive stock features industry-leading manufacturers including TEC Motors offering robust three-phase and single-phase brake motor solutions designed for continuous industrial duty.

Engineered for Rapid Stopping & Fail-Safe Operation
Electric brake motors combine a standard asynchronous induction motor with a heavy-duty, spring-applied electromagnetic brake (typically powered via a DC rectifier). In standard operation, the brake remains energised and disengaged; upon power loss or operational stop commands, internal springs instantly press the friction disc against the pressure plate, bringing the shaft to a secure stop.
This fail-safe architecture prevents coasting, minimises overrun, and safely locks loads in place during emergency stops or power failures.

Key Features & Technical Specifications Include:
• Fail-Safe Electromagnetic Braking: Features spring-applied DC brakes for swift response times, precise positioning, and zero-slip static load holding.
• Manual Release Mechanisms: Equipped with optional hand-release levers to disengage the brake manually during installation, power outages, or maintenance setup.
• Versatile Frame Construction: Available in lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminium bodies for sizes up to 160 frame, and heavy-duty cast iron for high-vibration applications.
• Flexible IEC Mounting Types: Stocked across standard foot-mounted (B3), flange-mounted (B5), face-mounted (B14), and combined foot/flange (B35) configurations.
• Duty Cycle & Inverter Duty: Built to withstand frequent start-stop cycles (S3/S4 duty) and fully compatible with inverters for controlled deceleration curves.

Typical Industrial Applications:
Electric brake motors are vital across industries where mechanical coasting poses a safety hazard or damages product. Key applications include conveyors, hoists, cranes, packaging machinery, automated gates, indexing tables, and machine tools.

By stocking genuine, fully certified components, Engineers Mate ensures your plant achieves maximum operational safety, strict compliance with UK safety standards, and minimal maintenance downtime.
