Article: Brake Noise
Take in depth look at the cause and solutions to this often elusive problem.
Brake noise can be a very elusive problem, and when brake noise is present, it is often one of the largest annoyances for machine operators. Montalvo has spent a great deal of time and effort over the years discovering causes and finding solutions to brake noise.
Elements such as a brake disc’s surface, residual friction pad material, mounting & alignment, machine components and more can all lead to potential brake noise. This article looks at each of these elements in more detail to inform you about, and help prevent brake noise.
XN Cantilever Load Cell
For cantilevered and narrow web applications (tag, label, film, etc)
XN Load Cells are capable of utilizing your existing rollers or can be built
with a roller fully customized to your specifications. Designed specifically for applications utilizing cantilevered rollers the XN Load Cell gives you a more reliable, accurate, and precise tension signal.
