		Magnetek Braketronic Controller (19) Applications The Mondel Braketronic Controller provides variable torque control of Mondel Thruster- operated shoe or disc brakes. Braketronic Controllers can be applied to single or multiple brake systems and can be supplied from DC, single-phase or three-phase power supplies at any voltage or frequency. The typical Braketronic Controller can operate in conjunction with a foot pedal or master switch to deliver proportional control of the brakes. In less demanding applications the Braketronic can be programmed to apply the brakes at a predetermined rate by means of "ramp down" using a single step device in a radio transmitter or pendant. Command can be arranged for radio remote control only or ...

		Magnetek Motor Mounted Brakes Magnetek's motor mounted brakes offer an easy alternative for brake integration Magnetek’s new motor mounted brakes feature the brake already mounted on the opposite drive end (ODE) of the motor, which saves time and eliminates brake mounting labor. Crane builders often buy shoe brakes, brake wheels and motors as separate items, then integrate them into their designs by building separate mounting bases for the motor and the brake. The motor and brake then need to be carefully aligned (usually with shims) to work properly. Obtaining the motor with a brake package factory mounted simplifies crane design and saves shop time. With the brake mounted, the motor simply needs to be bolted in place and its shaft ...
