An has been introduced by INA for its RUE
(roller), KUSE and KUVE (four-row and six-row ball type) monorail guide
systems. The self-adjusting BKE system ensures that the brake shoes are
always in close proximity to the rail, and that these only contact the
non-raceway sections of the profile. In this way, the braking response is
fast and the braking forces (up to 5,100N) do not compromise bearing
life. The system can be supplied for new installations or for
retrofitting to existing machinery.
