INTEGRATED BRAKE SYSTEM
![]()
SOMANET Circulo now comes with a BRAKE System preventing the motor from unwanted rotary motion.
- Motor speed is reduced to a low level before the brake latches
- The brake prevents the motor from unwanted rotary motion
(e.g. in case of power loss) - The Circulo Brake System is a perfect match for application such
as inside robot arms and mobile robots
…SAFETY FIRST
DEFINING THE FUTURE FOR TRUE HUMAN-ROBOT COLLABORATION.
The optional Safe Motion Module for Circulo allows for SIL3 PL e level safe motion functions over FSoE (FailSafe over EtherCAT). Implement your application according to ISO/TS 15066.
