Nexen ZSE Brake Family

Product Overview
Maximize machine efficiency and safety with the Industry 4.0 ready Smart ZSE Brakes
Nexen has many solutions for precision and high-performance rotary applications, the new ZSE brake family is no exception. These brakes come in a wide variety of bore sizes to fit every shaft holding application and boasts off-the-shelf, zero-backlash breaking at 100% torque.


Industry 4.0
ZSE breaks are available with smart sensors to detect disengagement and internal temperature.
Zero Backlash
While some competitors can only promise zero backlash at 10% of rated torque, the ZSE family of brakes can hold up to 100% of rated torque. They are able to accomplish this by using a solid hub to hold torsional rigidity. The one-piece hub clamping collar lowers inertia and eliminates spline.
Range of Applications
Use in a range of applications such as a positioning indexer, trunnion table, shaft setup or conveyor system.
No overheating
The brakes are spring-engaged and air released. The pneumatic function keeps the unit cool, eliminating performance problems that you might see in electrical brakes.
