ModEvo Brakes

The Wichita CAB Copper Alloy Brakes are pneumatically actuated water cooled brakes designed for use in constantly slipping applications. CAB brakes have a high power dissipation capacity within a reduced envelope size due to their advanced design. Developed for original equipment manufacturers and upgrading of existing plant. CAB brakes are frequently used on tension control...

The name for Wichita’s ModEvo tension control brake is derived from ‘modular’ and ‘evolutionary’, terms that describe it perfectly. Modular – because braking systems to suit diverse tensioning applications can be assembled from a minimal number of modules common to the entire ModEvo range. Evolutionary – because continuous development of new materials, improved design and...

Wichita Water Cooled Brakes provide high heat dissipation in a cost effective design. The proven air tube actuation allows precise web tension with simple air controls. A simple,cost effective design, with a one piece steel water jacket to eliminate leakage. Characteristics Pneumatically applied – spring release Water cooled for good heat transfer 1, 2, 3...
