Use Cases for a C-Face Marine Motor Brakes
C-Face marine motor brakes are commonly used on various marine applications for offshore and military applications including:
- Industrial Braking Systems for Shipboard Cranes - hoist brakes provide optimal safety measures for overhead cranes including portal cranes located on naval ships to protect the ship loading process against high-winds and other treacherous elements.
- Industrial Braking Systems for Anchor and Longline Winches - typically in a horizontal direction, winches manipulate the start and stopping motion of an anchor chain. This includes anchor windlasses, a specific type of winch used to hoist up and let-out heavy aquatic equipment like an anchor or fishing trawl.
What is the non-drive end of a motor?
The drive end of a typical AC or DC motor, also known as the “shaft end,” functions to bear a load; whereas, the non-driving end of an industrial AC or DC motor, also referred to as “the front end,” or, “the outboard end,” is primarily responsible for carrying the coupling of driving pulley.
