Kendrion Product Lines & Brake Series
Comprehensive spectrum of industrial fail-safe spring brakes, permanent magnet units, caliper assemblies, and automation modules with torque ratings from 0.1 to 2,500 Nm.
Kendrion INTORQ BFK Spring-Applied Safety Brakes
Providing engineering selection and international supply of Kendrion INTORQ BFK spring-applied safety brakes engineered for electric motors, hoisting winches, automated conveyors, escalators, and wind turbine pitch drives.
Operating on the fail-safe principle, helical compression springs force the armature plate against the dual-friction rotor upon power cutoff. The modular flagship BFK458 and compact BFK457 series offer torque ratings from 0.12 to 600 Nm, while heavy multi-disc BFK468 units reach 2,500 Nm.
Systems can be configured with manual hand releases, microswitches for air gap and wear monitoring, and sealed enclosures up to IP66 for harsh and cold storage environments. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Supplying precision backlash-free permanent magnet brakes from Kendrion's High Torque Line, Compact Line, and Slim Line series, engineered for dynamic servomotors, industrial robotic joints, medical imaging gantries, and precision CNC rotary axes.
In unpowered status, permanent magnets generate high holding torque, while applying a rated DC voltage creates a counter-magnetic field that entirely releases the armature plate with zero residual drag.
Patented spring diaphragm suspensions eliminate torsional backlash, ensuring pinpoint positioning repeatability. The product portfolio spans braking torque ratings from 0.1 to 400 Nm across compact outer frame diameters ranging from 20 to 200 mm.
We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Delivering Kendrion INTORQ BFK466 and BFK460 series electromagnetic caliper brakes engineered for dry clamping of steel brake discs from 300 to 2000 mm in diameter.
Mounted directly to machine frames, these heavy calipers exert clamping forces up to 55 kN per unit (BFK466-55), providing emergency braking on mine hoists, passenger transit escalators, wind turbine rotors, and heavy industrial gantry cranes.
Spring-applied fail-safe activation ensures immediate mechanical locking during power loss, while electric solenoid release removes the need for complex hydraulic piping, power units, or fluid maintenance.
Caliper bodies feature swing-open pad holders for rapid friction pad servicing without dismounting the brake. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Kendrion Dry-Running Electromagnetic Clutches
Procuring Kendrion dry-running single-disc electromagnetic clutches engineered for controlled engagement, cycle disconnection, and rapid synchronization of driven shafts in packaging automation, textile machinery, printing equipment, and custom gearboxes.
Energizing the stationary coil housing establishes a magnetic flux that engages the armature faceplate, transmitting torque ratings from 0.6 to 500 Nm without slip. Upon power cut, a pre-stressed flat spring instantly retracts the armature, ensuring zero idle drag torque.
Available in through-shaft keyway designs, flange-mounted configurations, and positive-locking toothed clutch profiles for high shock load applications. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Supplying Kendrion Classic Line and High Performance Line industrial linear solenoids and rotary actuators for automated assembly cells, parcel sorting gates, electromechanical locking assemblies, and valve manifolds.
The lineup comprises open-frame linear solenoids with stroke lengths from 1 to 50 mm delivering pull forces up to 3,000 N, robust cylindrical encapsulated actuators rated up to IP65 for washdown environments, and bi-stable rotary solenoids achieving angular travels up to 95° without axial shaft deflection.
Maintenance-free PTFE-lined armature bearings ensure sustained mechanical lifespans exceeding 20 million duty cycles. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Procuring Kendrion INTORQ 14.630 and 14.611 series electronic power modules and rectifiers designed for accelerated control of electromagnetic brake and clutch coils.
Converting AC main supplies from 100 to 500 V AC into stabilized DC coil power, these compact units feature overexcitation capabilities that temporarily double applied voltage during turn-on, slashing brake release delays by a factor of 2 to 4.
During shutoff, integrated high-voltage semiconductor switches extinguish inductive reverse EMF, delivering virtually instantaneous mechanical clamping. Engineered in encapsulated formats for motor terminal boxes or 35 mm DIN-rail mounts.
We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Delivering advanced industrial automation solutions from Kendrion's Kuhnke Automation division.
The portfolio features Kuhnke FIO Controller 113 and 116 modular programmable logic controllers based on high-efficiency ARM Cortex cores, ultra-fast EtherCAT fieldbus couplers, high-density digital and analog slice I/O modules, and rugged Kuhnke Vico touch HMI operator panels spanning 4.3 to 15.6 inches.
Programmed seamlessly via CODESYS V3, the system supports native CANopen, Modbus TCP, and OPC UA protocols for robust integration into modern industrial Industry 4.0 architectures. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
Procuring Kuhnke series 72, 74, 75, and 76 precision miniature pneumatic and solenoid valves designed for controlling compressed air, inert gases, and liquid media across medical diagnostic analyzers, dental units, textile equipment, and microfluidics.
Direct-acting poppet and diaphragm architectures are available in 2/2-way and 3/2-way normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) patterns, handling pressures from deep vacuum up to 10 bar with flow rates up to 300 l/min.
Low-power DC coils (0.5 to 4.5 W) reduce heat buildup in enclosed cabinets and support PWM duty-cycle optimization. We provide the complete spectrum of manufacturer revisions with verified compatibility and monitored express logistics.
To determine the exact Kendrion brake configuration for machine modernization or replacement duty, our engineering specialists evaluate critical motor parameters: rated power and speed, shaft diameter, required static holding and dynamic stopping torques, coil operating voltages, and target response times. Based on duty cycle profiles, we calculate friction work per cycle, allowable hourly switching frequencies without coil thermal saturation, and specify matched friction linings and electronic controllers. For retrofit projects replacing legacy drive units, we provide custom adapter flange dimensions to maintain existing mechanical footprints. Application engineers perform verification calculations for emergency stop friction energy dissipation in joules (J) against manufacturer datasheet limits.
Service Lifecycle & OEM Wear Parts Supply
Reliable operation of Kendrion and INTORQ electromagnetic brakes depends on scheduled air gap verification and timely replacement of high-wear components: dual-surface friction rotors, splined hub assemblies, compression springs, dust seals, and electronic rectifiers. We supply genuine factory maintenance kits with calibrated adjustment screws to ensure original holding dynamics and rapid field turnaround. Components are matched directly against nameplate serial numbers to eliminate revision discrepancies. Proactive rotor replacement prevents armature plate scoring and coil thermal breakdown. Scheduled brake maintenance requires thorough inspection of rotor-to-hub splined interfaces: excessive backlash introduces shock loads and accelerates mechanical wear. We supply factory-matched hub and rotor pairs with dynamic balancing.
International Procurement & Supply Terms
Delivery of genuine Kendrion brakes, clutches, solenoids, and automation modules is executed under international commercial supply contracts accompanied by conformity certificates, technical datasheets, and export documentation. We do not claim exclusive territorial distributorship and operate through verified independent global supply chains. Commercial pricing, fabrication lead times, and freight schedules are determined on a per-project quotation basis.
