Engaging individual polyethylene sheet rolls with no system downtime is accomplished with speed and accuracy using Miki Pulley CSZ Clutches. Continuously operating via servo motor power by way of a V-belt, individual roll spools automatically switch on/off as programmed when engaged by the CSZ clutches. These high-performance clutches function using electro-magnetic force generated by an […]

New micro brakes for small, precise equipment applications
Fast braking response in small, precision torque applications are the primary benefit of Miki Pulley Micro Brakes. Where high performance braking for small motion control applications are required, these Micro Brakes provide the solution. Miki Pulley’s ultra-compact brake design features a stator with integrated mounting flange, proprietary composite friction liner and armature complete with ring […]
Power-off engaged brakes for conveyor applications
Miki Pulley’s latest model BXW power-off engaged brakes are designed to halt a motorized conveyor roller when system power is disengaged. These new BXW brakes are spring-actuated electromagnetic brakes. They provide reliable dynamic braking when conveyor power is disengaged and excellent performance for longer-term holding requirements for staging, loading and unloading conveyor operations. BXW brakes […]
Extra thin emergency and holding brakes for compact automated systems
Miki Pulley’s unique BXR power-off engaged brake can serve as an emergency brake, as well as a holding brake, important for protecting compact designed automated systems. These BXR spring applied brakes provide versatility in space and weight savings. Their unique, low-profile design is 2/3 the thickness of other brakes in the Miki lineup. The brakes […]
Brakes for elevator and lift applications from Miki Pulley
Spring-actuated BXL Brakes from Miki Pulley are designed for the challenging requirements of elevator and lift applications. Designed exclusively for dynamic braking, these brakes are designed for constant elevator usage where long service life with high wear resistance is required. BXL Brakes feature minimal torque fluctuation, even when stopped from maximum RPM. This ensures a […]
New BXW model spring-actuated brakes from Miki Pulley
Miki Pulley’s BXW spring-actuated electromagnetic brakes provide reliable dynamic braking when the power is disengaged and excellent performance in long-term holding applications. BXW brakes use internal compression springs to provide power-off, fail-safe braking. The primary moving part in this robust but simple brake design is the armature plate. When actuated, the brake compression springs push […]
Electromagnetic brakes provide more stopping power for servo motors using less space
The BXR-LE brake series from Miki Pulley is a power-off, engaged brake design. When the stator is energized, the brake is disengaged allowing free rotation. When no current is applied, compression springs halt the brake rotor thereby stopping the input shaft rotation. This is an ideal feature to prevent rotation during power failure events. The […]
Zero backlash featured in Miki Pulley CSZ electromagnetic clutches
Miki Pulley’s CSZ electromagnetic clutches have a zero backlash design and provide an efficient connection between a motor and a load with low inertia, minimal drag and zero backlash. CSZ clutches function using the magnetic force generated by the energized coil providing engagement of input and output members of the clutch. They feature an integrated […]
Step-FlexTM coupling solving resonance problems in ball screws
Step-Flex, the new class of shaft couplings, eliminates resonance in stepper motor ball screw assemblies. Now with this video, system designers can see how this innovative two-part elastomer element combination coupling operates. Step-Flex Couplings are designed to “mechanically tune” the system for optimal performance when a stepper motor is used to drive a linear actuator. […]
