Mayr Transmissions Ltd is a subsidiary of Chr. Mayr GmbH & Co KG – Germany. With over 100 years of engineering experience, Mayr is a proven, well-established and quality conscious company, with a philosophy for innovation and customer service. Mayr manufacture backlash-free couplings, electromagnetic clutches/brakes, and are worldwide market leader for mechanical torque limiters. Mayr are striving to become the technological leader for electromagnetic safety brakes, and are beginning to dominate selected niche markets – chiefly stage/theatre winches and elevator/escalator drives. Our electromagnetic (EN81 approved) dual circuit fail-safe brakes – ROBA®-stop Z, and electromagnetic calliper – ROBA?-stop-disk, were introduced to the elevator and escalator industries. The quiet operation and personnel safety characteristics of these brakes made them ideal for theatre and stage handling equipment/winches – achieving BGV C1 approval. Mayr’s approach of continual development resulted in the quietest brake available on the world market – the ROBA?-stop-silenzio. Switching noise is <50 dßA, although in tests have achieved significantly lower than this even after 500,000 switchings. Besides these standard series brakes, Mayr has supplied many individual customer specific solutions for the theatre industry, like the RSA high torque housed servo brake module. We are pleased to work closely with customers to provide an optimum solution for their application. Based on our know-how, we can offer an innovative, cost-effective and extremely silent solution for your specific requirements. Reliable safe braking demands a competent partner. Mayr is that reliable partner, whose proficiency and experience is demonstrated in the number of ROBA®-stop brakes performing in theatres and on stages worldwide.
