Safety brake

Safety brakes from SEW‑EURODRIVE are characterized by their exceptional reliability as well as electronic and mechanical load capacity.

Safety brakes allow you to increase the safety in your machines by implementing safety functions for deceleration and stopping. The safety brake represents the safety-relevant actuator in the intelligent interaction of sensor, control, and actuator.

The safety brakes cannot trigger a safe state at the machine autonomously. The brakes must be augmented in the overall system with suitable brake control and monitored by means of a brake test, if necessary. The overall system triggers a suitable fault response, e.g. the safe state, on request.
