In demanding industrial environments, precision, safety, and reliability are not optional – they’re essential. Whether you’re managing crane systems in a busy port, operating winches on offshore platforms, or overseeing drive mechanisms in a steel mill, having a dependable braking system is critical. Unplanned downtime or equipment failure is not just costly, it can compromise safety, productivity, and regulatory compliance.
That’s why Euro HÜBNER Benelux B.V. proudly supplies Dellner Bubenzer electromagnetic brakes: world-class braking systems engineered to deliver high performance under the most extreme conditions. Trusted by leading manufacturers across the globe, these brakes are the go-to solution when fail-safe, responsive stopping is non-negotiable.
What Are Electromagnetic Brakes?
Electromagnetic brakes use magnetic force to stop or hold mechanical motion. When power is applied, an electromagnet generates a magnetic field that releases or engages a friction surface, depending on the brake type. In many industrial designs, the brake is spring-applied and electromagnetically released, which means the system automatically engages during a power loss, providing fail-safe braking.
This makes electromagnetic braking systems ideal for sectors where safety is mission-critical, such as offshore lifting, steel production, and wind energy.

Product spotlight: Dellner Bubenzer brake series
Here are some of the most popular Dellner Bubenzer electromagnetic brake series that Euro HÜBNER supports and supplies:
SFB Series
The SFB brakes are one of the most widely used electromagnetic brakes in Dellner Bubenzer’s portfolio. Known for its compact design and high braking torque, the SFB brake is ideal for electric motors, hoists, and other industrial drive systems. It offers fast reaction times and operates with minimal noise, which makes it suitable for environments where both performance and comfort are key. The SFB brake is easy to install and requires minimal adjustment, making it a cost-effective and low-maintenance choice for many applications.
Key features:
- High wear resistance thanks to robust friction materials
- Simple integration into IEC and NEMA motor configurations
- Optional manual release mechanisms
KFB Series
The KFB brakes build on the strengths of the SFB series while offering additional durability and environmental protection. With an IP67 rating, the KFB brake is built to withstand water, dust, and corrosion, making it an excellent option for marine and offshore industries. Its spring-applied, electromagnetically released mechanism provides maximum safety in case of power failure, and its precise torque control ensures reliable holding and stopping functions.
Key features:
- IP67 protection for harsh outdoor and marine conditions
- Modular design for easy adaptation to different applications
- Long service life with low lifecycle costs
Both series are designed for fast response, long service life, and minimal maintenance – making them favourites in global markets.

Designed for harsh environments
Heavy industry environments are demanding; exposure to salt water, dust, high temperatures, vibration, and heavy loads can wear out standard components. Dellner Bubenzer brakes are designed with these conditions in mind.
They are:
- IP-rated for ingress protection
- Built from corrosion-resistant materials
- Designed to handle shock and vibration
- Certified to international standards where applicable
Whether used in a dusty steelworks or on a wind-swept offshore rig, these brakes deliver reliability when it matters most.
Integrate with confidence
Need more than just braking? Euro HÜBNER can help integrate your brakes with other motion-critical components such as:
- Absolute encoders
- Motion control systems
- Encoder accessories and monitoring systems
This combination allows for smarter, safer, and more efficient systems – where every component works in sync to support performance and safety.
