MW200-160 Electromagnetic Drum Brake is a specific model within the MW series of electromagnetic block brakes. It is widely used in industrial settings such as cranes, metallurgy, and transportation machinery.
This model appears to be a specific configuration (often indicating a frame size of 200 with a specific torque or power rating related to 160).
Here are the detailed specifications, features, and applications based on the available data:
🔧 Key Features
The MW200-160 shares the common characteristics of the MW series, designed for reliability and low maintenance:
Reliable & Safe: Designed with a fail-safe mechanism where the spring applies the brake and electromagnet releases it, ensuring safety during power outages.
Equal Lining Clearance (Equal Retreat Device): It features a联锁式 (interlocking) equal retreat mechanism. This ensures that the clearance (distance) between the brake shoes and the drum is always equal on both sides, preventing the brake lining from floating or uneven wear.
Self-Lubricating Bearings: The main hinge points are equipped with self-lubricating bearings, which improves transmission efficiency and extends the service life without requiring frequent lubrication.
Eco-Friendly Friction Material: Uses asbestos-free brake linings (available in semi-metallic, hard, or semi-hard materials) that are wear-resistant and environmentally friendly.
Easy Maintenance: The brake linings are clip-in type, making them very quick and easy to replace without disassembling the entire unit.
📋 Technical Specifications
While specific parameters can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer (such as Xingkai or Hongtai in Jiaozuo), here is a general overview of the technical data for this model:

🏭 Applications
This brake is primarily used as a减速 or holding device in various mechanical drive systems. You will commonly find it installed in:
Cranes & Hoists: For travel mechanisms and lifting drives.
Metallurgical Machinery: Such as continuous casting machines or rolling mills.
Conveyor Systems: For controlled stopping and emergency braking.
Port & Construction Machinery: Where high-frequency operation and reliability are required.
💡 Usage Conditions & Notes
To ensure the longevity of the MW200-160, please ensure the operating environment meets these criteria:
Altitude: Installation altitude should not exceed 1000 meters (some standards allow up to 2000 meters).
Environment: The area must be free of explosive gases, corrosive media, and conductive dust that could damage insulation.
Power Supply: Ensure a stable 380V AC supply. If used in outdoor environments exposed to rain or snow, a防腐型 (corrosion-resistant/protective) version is recommended.
