MAGPOWR SOFSTEP® Magnetic Particle Clutches and Brakes

MAGPOWR SOFSTEP® Magnetic Particle Clutches and Brakes

Torque is the power behind tension control, but it’s useless if there’s no regulation or guidance. The original SOFSTEP brakes with MAGPOWR controls are popular throughout the industry because of the smooth controllable torque they provide for power transmission and tension applications. As the original SOFSTEP provider, MAGPOWR offers these brakes in a variety of sizes with torque ratings from 2-240 lb-in.

Utilizing the SOFSTEP brakes and clutches, you’ll have exceptional control as torque is independent of slip speed and directly proportional to input current. These controls prevent shock and torque spikes during engagement, giving you controlled acceleration of every load.
