Hilliard provides braking systems for the elevator industry and elevator modernization projects.  Hilliard has a broad line of custom industrial brake systems for use in lifts, elevators and other heavy duty industrial applications.

 
 

M400SH


The Hilliard M400SH brake caliper is a spring applied, hydraulically released brake for use in heavy duty industrial applications. The brake comes standard with marine grade epoxy paint suitable for outdoor environments. The M400SH is available with standard force ratings which when paired with the correct disc size produces an exact braking torque for the application. 

The caliper features "Maintenance Mode" which removes all stored spring energy within the cylinder assembly. This allows for brake pad replacement, monitor unit adjustment and seal replacement without the need to remove the brake from service

Applications

Amusement / Stage Equipment - Conveyors - Cranes - Lifts/Elevators - Material Handling - Mining - Steel Industry - Winches

Type: Spring Applied / Hydraulic Released

A300-T200 SA Caliper Brake


The A300 is an arm style caliper brake designed to accept a large selection of Hilliard thrusters. These thrusters include spring applied hydraulic released, spring applied pneumatic released, hydraulic applied spring released, and pneumatic applied spring released. The A300 requires a minimum disc diameter of 12" and is offered in 4 sizes to accommodate a ½", 1", 1-3/16", and 1-1/2" thick disc. The design of the caliper allows the user to quickly convert between right and left handed designs eliminating the need for multiple part numbers. 

The SA thruster is a failsafe thruster that is spring applied pneumatically released. The spring applied thrusters are offered in multiple sizes to meet the needs of our customers. The T200 SA thruster produces a maximum braking force of 930 pounds at the maximum operating pressure of 90 psi with a maximum pressure of 120 psi.

Applications

Amusement / Stage Equipment - Conveyors - Lifts/Elevators - Renewable Energy - Steel Industry

Type: Spring Applied / Pneumatic Released

MK-350 Fail Safe Caliper Brake


The Hilliard MK350 is an electromagnetic, fail safe caliper brake. Spring applied, electric released, it is suitable for holding duty and emergency for applications such as conveyors, elevators and cranes. Alternative mounting arrangement: pin mounting, base mounting horizontal and base mounting angle. 

The MK350 is capable of producing a maximum 350 LBF of braking force with up to 210 VDC release voltage and 100 VDC holding voltage. Mounted on pins allowing for axial movement, it has an optional manual release mechanism for a momentarily brake release with a standard open-end or socket wrench.

Applications

Amusement / Stage Equipment - Cranes - Lifts/Elevators - Material Handling - Power Generation - Renewable Energy - Steel Industry

Type: Spring Applied / Electric Released

Spring Applied / Electric Released Brakes


Hilliard Electric Brakes provide positive stopping and reliable holding of rotating devices on demand-every time. Spring engaged when current is interrupted and electromagnetically relased when voltage is applied, these brakes are designed for maximum flexibility and long, dependable service. Each brake has an easy-to-adjust wear bolt to compensate for friction service wear and extend the life of the brake.

Hilliard Electric Brakes are fully machines to close tolerances using high-quality steel with a flexibility in coil design available in 6 VDC to 240 VDC and torque ratings from 7.5 to 4,500 lb./ft. Custom applications are easily customized and fulfilled.
