Power off brake for e-parking
17 October 2019
SG Transmission has developed a 40 mm diameter static holding brake (12 Volt DC, 0.6 Nm Torque) for a German automotive customer as a parking brake with fail safe power-off braking.

The approach is a fully automated production process with single part feed, including an air gap pre-set during the manufacture process with reduced part count for simpler assembly.
The electrical connection is with integrated terminals.
The spring applied brake has been optimised to:
- reduce complexity of parts
- reduce manual handling
- reduce cost
- cover high quantity needs of over 100,000 pieces per year.
If required, this concept can be adapted to other sizes and performance (voltage, force, function, environment, lifecycle).
