Answer a few quick questions to get your personalized product recommendation. Customizable to your individual requirements Overview of Safety Brakes mayr® safety brakes fall into two main categories: Elevator and stage brakes featuring patented noise damping, as well as industrial brakes designed for applications ranging from medical robots to port cranes. Quiet, reliable, and standard-compliant: noise-damped safety brakes for drives in elevators and stages protect both people and equipment. Fundamentally noise-damped Certified according to applicable standards Designed to work with mayr® monitoring and supply modules mayr® industrial brakes ensure reliable machine and system movements, whether during a power failure, emergency stop, or normal operation – application-optimized, safe, and innovative. Numerous options available Standard-compliant, safe, and dependable Available in corrosion-resistant designs Typical Application Fields for Safety Brakes Keep your machines and systems safely and reliably held in any position with mayr® power transmission safety brakes. The applications are many and varied: Robotics and automation, including medical robots and cobots Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) Tunnelling and underground mining Crane systems and hoisting applications Safely transporting people in elevators Enjoying art without disruption in stage applications Ensuring safe human-robot collaboration in robotics Efficient, reliable power generation in wind turbines Ensuring smooth and precise machine and system operation Reliable protection of people and equipment in tunnels and mines Reliable, safe operation of medical devices Meeting regulatory standards, especially for safety critical vertical axes Why choose mayr® power transmission safety brakes? Every machine or system moves masses or loads that need to be safely and reliably braked or held. Machine manufacturers are ultimately responsible for ensuring the safety of their equipment. And it is the duty of the design engineers to make this happen – especially when it comes to protecting people. mayr® power transmission safety brakes ensure in every scenario that people and equipment are reliably protected, and that designers can comply with standards and regulations. Our broad portfolio of braking systems offers a cost-effective, technically optimized solution for every application. Safety brakes are essential components that must be carefully selected. Before selecting a safety brake, it’s important to identify the relevant regulatory requirements, for example, which Performance Levels (PLr) according to DIN EN ISO 13849-1 need to be achieved. A technically precise design based on the technical dimensioning of the machine construction is also essential. Armed with this information, you can choose the right brake – we recommend reaching out to reputable manufacturers with a wide range of braking solutions and proven expertise in safety brakes. They should also offer helpful resources such as dimensioning guides, validation tools, technical webinars, and online configurators, which guide users quickly and safely to the right brake. When it comes to safety critical components, it is advisable to contact technical experts at the supplier and seek their guidance. mayr® power transmission offers, among other things, noise-damped elevator and stage brakes. They correspond to the applicable standards and remain extremely quiet throughout their entire lifetime. The second category is industrial brakes for a wide range of applications, from robotics and mechanical engineering to renewable energy generation. All safety brakes from mayr® power transmission follow the fail-safe principle, meaning they are applied when de-energized. This means that even in the event of a power failure or faults in the brake’s power supply, safety is guaranteed at all times. mayr® power transmission safety brakes are found across over 60 industry sectors and areas of application. They are used wherever masses or loads need to be braked, brought to a standstill, or securely held in position. Industry sectors where mayr® power transmission brakes are used include, but are not limited to: Crane and hoisting applications Spring-applied brakes from mayr® power transmission follow the fail-safe principle, meaning they are applied when de-energized. All our safety brakes also have the following features: For the safe and rel
