MOUNTING PLATE FOR
LK AND LKV TENSION BRAKES
LKV VARIABLE TENSION BRAKE
The Model LKV variable tension brake incorporates an
auxiliary cylinder/piston which can utilize either pneumatic
or hydraulic pressure to vary the torque of the brake. This
pressure may be introduced intermittently or continuously
depending upon the application. A threaded adjustment
sleeve, such as is used on the LK constant tension brake,
allows a fixed pre-set torque to be maintained with zero
actuation pressure and also takes up for wear.
LK OR LKV MOUNTING PLATE
The Model LK and LKV brakes are mounted to the machine
with special mounting plates. The mounting plates incorporate
flexible fingers to take up for wear and must be mounted with
the fingers in tension. The direction of rotation must be
specified to allow the proper selection of either a RH or LH
mounting plate.
MODEL LK OR LKV TENSION BRAKE DESCRIPTION
These brakes are commonly used on roll feeds for presses,
unwinding reels, and similar applications.
LK CONSTANT TENSION BRAKE
The Model LK constant tension brake is a spring-loaded
brake with a manual threaded adjustment sleeve. This sleeve
allows the brake to be adjusted while the brake is running and
takes up for wear. Once set, the brake torque is constant until
wear accumulates to the point where an adjustment is required.
