Maco corporation offers supplies constricting type of clutches and brakes, type cb, made by airflex division of eaton corporation, u.S.A. Type cb element assembly is structured designed and built to supply provide the most dependable clutch or brake service in the most exacting industrial applications. These brakes are it is suited for high speed, cyclic operation, as well as for coupling and general power transmission. The primary feature of the cb design and construction is the airflex torsional resilient principle, made possible by the transmission of power, through the sidewalls of the flexible neoprene and cord actuating tube. The flexibility of neoprene also allows permits minor shaft misalignment. Friction shoes of the brakes are attached to the tubes inside diameter by pins. These tubes , which in turn are held in positions by lockwires. Pressurising the tube forces the friction shoes to engage around a cylindrical drum. Type cb elements are available in 20 sizes. Through single and dual flanged element bolted together, these type cb elements and give a wide option of torque capacity, through single and dual flanged element bolted together, to get twice the torque capacity of the single element. The additional feature includes one moving component, cushioned action, flexible coupling and split elements are the additional feature of brake.
