| SHOWN ABOVE IS AN EXAMPLE OF AN INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION WHERE SAFETY IS A PRIMARY CONCERN. THE OPERATOR WORKS CLOSE TO A HIGH SPEED SPINDLE WITH AN OSHA APPROVED GUARD TO MASK THE FRONT SECTION. A HEAVY WALL-SHORT STROKE AIR CYLINDER WITH A BRAKE PAD IS MOUNTED BELOW A BRAKE DRUM. FEED LINES ENTER THE SYSTEM BENEATH THE BENCH AND AWAY FROM THE WORK ZONE. AN OPERATOR CUTS THE POWER AND APPLIES THE BRAKE IN ONE MOTION. BRAKING ACTION IS ADJUSTABLE FROM AGGRESSIVE TO SLIGHT WITH A PRESSURE REGULATOR TO COMPENSATE FOR ROTATIONAL INERTIA OF THE SPINDLE & WORK PIECE COMBINATION. |
