The Brake & Load Unit - Vibrano X - 14 induces torque based vibrations in systems such as toothed gearing mechanisms or electric motors. It features a magnetic particle brake with ventilation, paired with a digital display and control unit for fine torque adjustment. This Brake & Load Unit operates across two speed and torque ranges, direct (200~2000min-1, 1~10Nm) and belt drive (600~6000min-1, 0.2~3.3Nm). Continuous braking power is approx. 450W/3000min-1, with built-in temperature and fan overheating protection.

Construction and Design
The Brake & Load Unit - Vibrano X - 14 consists of a magnetic particle brake and an electric display/control unit. The brake includes ventilation to manage heat generated during operation. The control unit allows fine adjustment of braking torque via a potentiometer, with the resulting torque displayed digitally through the exciter current reading.
An integrated belt drive equips the brake with two speed and torque ranges, using a free shaft for the belt driven configuration. Direct brake operation covers a speed range of 200~2000min-1 with braking torque of 1~10Nm, while belt drive operation covers 600~6000min-1 with braking torque of 0.2~3.3Nm. Heat generated by the brake is dissipated into the ambient air via a fan, with temperature and fan overheating protection built in. This Brake & Load Unit mounts swiftly and accurately onto the slotted plate of the base unit.
