Technical Data
3.1 Description
The CB8-E (see figure 1 and figure 2) is designed to transfer a braking torque to a brake disc in
order to stop the rotation of the brake disc or to prevent the brake disc from rotating when stopped
(parking brake). Any other use of the brake should be avoided.
CB8-E brakes are suitable for horizontal and vertical brake discs under any angular displacement.
The CB8-E is designed as a caliper brake which is activated / closed by the force of an integrated
helical compression spring. The clamping force and so the brake torque can be adjusted by adjusting
this spring force. An electro-hydraulic thrustor is used to open the brake.
