The elevator brake is one of the most critical safety components in an elevator system. Installed on the traction machine, the brake ensures the elevator stops accurately and securely at each floor and prevents unintended movement when at rest.
At Yuanqi Elevator, we supply a wide range of elevator brakes compatible with major elevator traction machines, supporting both maintenance and modernization needs.
What Is an Elevator Brake?
An elevator brake is an electro-mechanical device mounted on the elevator motor shaft. It activates when power is cut, using spring force to clamp the brake pads and stop the motor from rotating. This ensures the elevator cab remains safely in place when idle or during an emergency.
Common elevator brakes currently available on the market are categorized as follows:
Drum brake
Lever drum brake: Drum brake
Direct pressure drum brake: Block brake (Main components: brake electromagnet, brake arm, brake pad, brake spring).
Disc brake
Caliper disc brake: Butterfly brake (Composed of armature, brake armature disc, spring, and connecting seat).
Axial disc brake: Disc brake (Composed of electromagnetic coil, armature, friction disc, spring, connecting sleeve, and other components).
