GREATER SAFETY THROUGH SHORTER CLOSING TIME
This saves an enormous amount of time because pneumatic lines with typical hose lengths have more air in their pneumatic lines than in
the air ducts of the braking element itself.
This has considerable eects on the braking distance. For a vertical axis with an initial velocity of 0.5 m/s, the overall braking distance increases considerably compared to a solution with an integrated valve. The braking distance is almost 50% longer for a hose length of one
meter; it is nearly 250% longer for a hose length of 6.5 m. As a result, the integrated valve creates a lot of space for preventing expensive
crashes and loss of production. Since the compressed air in the supply line does not have to be vented continuously, air consumption also
drops considerably: For a hose length starting as low as 4 meters you achieve savings of more than 90% per cycle.

SMART DESIGN
To accelerate the venting process as much as possible, there are also two quick exhaust valves integrated into the braking element that
open as soon as the pressure in the system drops. As a result, the majority of the compressed air ows out via the two quick exhaust valves.
Thus the integrated valve acts as an accelerated triggering for the two quick exhaust valves. This means the air can ow out very quickly
and the response time of the entire braking element is substantially reduced.

RELIABILITY AND QUALITY
The high clamping force plus the high rigidity due to brake pads that are integrated with a positive t and adapted to the prole also ensure
the entire system can absorb high axial forces after clamping. In addition, the positioning accuracy to within two hundredths of a millimeter
is exceptionally high.
