Brake module for fully automatic stopping of loads

Losyco presents a fully automatic Brake Module as an extension for his Loxrail intralogistics system for mechanical and plant engineering. The Smart Brake Module is used for the fully automatic stopping of loads on the rail track. It was designed for manually moved trolleys and transport platforms and ensures that the load and trolley are held safely and automatically if obstacles block the route or manual push is no longer possible.

For this, the brake module was equipped with a special sensors equipped with a double pattern detection has. Both detection methods to trigger the Brake also work with protruding loads and automatically switch when you change the direction of travel.

This must be taken into account when installing safety brakes

The sensors recognize this from behind step pattern when pushing the platform manually. They activated the braking function when there was no longer a pushing movement.

When you push again, the brake releases automatically. In the front area, the sensors ensure that obstacles are detected automatic stopping the platform as soon as persons or objects block the route.

The brake module for intralogistics is can be configured as required. As a self-reinforcing system, it is not subject to any load limitation. It can be adapted to all transport trolleys for transporting loads on Loxrail rails with a shaft diameter of 25 mm or 40 mm.
