INTORQ Electromagnetic Clutches and Brakes Across Australian Industries
Widely used across Australian industries, Intorq electromagnetic clutches and brakes deliver precise and dependable torque control for efficient machine operation. They are devised to enhance stopping accuracy, making them a smart, long-term investment for challenging industrial environments.
Mining & Material Handling
In cranes and conveyor systems, Intorq brakes provide rapid, controlled deceleration of heavy loads. The BFK458 series offers braking torque from 1.5 to 600Nm, coupled with IP66 protection. This is ideal for harsh, dust-mining conditions where safety is prioritised.
Manufacturing & Automation
For servo-drive-driven machinery, Intorq clutches and brakes deliver backlash-free torque transmission, supporting high-speed indexing and consistent production quality.
Renewable Energy
In wind turbines and renewable energy systems, Intorq brakes ensure reliable emergency stopping and secure holding.
Logistics & Warehousing
Used in industrial trucks and automated guided vehicles (AGVs), Intorq brakes function as parking and emergency brakes. They deliver zero residual torque when de-energised to support operator safety and equipment protection.

FAQs
What are INTORQ electromagnetic clutches and brakes used for?
Intorq electromagnetic clutches and brakes deliver precise torque transmission and braking through dry friction, ensuring backlash-free operation when DC voltage is applied. Prestressed springs provide automatic, residual-torque-free release, guaranteeing reliable, fail-safe performance in demanding industrial applications.
How do electromagnetic brakes work?
Electromagnetic brakes, like Intorq models, use an electromagnetic coil to control friction-based stopping via spring-applied or power-on mechanisms.
Explore our full product range here.
What is a fail-safe brake?
A fail-safe brake automatically stops or holds a load if power is lost. It uses spring force as the default “safe” state to prevent uncontrolled movement.
How do I select the right clutch or brake for my application?
To select the right electromagnetic clutch or brake, like Intorq models, calculate the required torque first, then match it to duty cycle, speed, and environmental conditions.
Are INTORQ brakes suitable for harsh environments?
Yes. Intorq brakes are well-suited for harsh environments with IP00 to IP55 enclosures.
Do electromagnetic brakes require regular maintenance?
Yes. Electromagnetic brakes like Intorq models require regular maintenance due to wear and tear, or because friction linings and air gap increase over time. Conduct daily and/or weekly visual checks for leaks, noise, and cleanliness using dry air. Avoid using solvents. Every month and/or quarter, inspect wear or discs/springs and test the torque.
