Electromagnetically actuated brakes are engineered to rapidly bring a moving load to a complete stop and securely hold it in place (working brake) or to fix the position of a stationary load (holding brake). These brakes are designed for high-frequency applications where quick activation and reliable performance are essential.

Activation—whether closing or opening the brake—occurs within a fraction of a second, ensuring efficient and safe braking in dynamic conditions. Electromagnetic brakes are predominantly utilized in electric motors, but they are also integral to a variety of integrated systems.

Depending on the specific requirements of the application, either spring-applied brakes or permanent magnet brakes may be employed to deliver the necessary performance and reliability.
