Nexen Safety-Rated Rail Brakes: Protect People and Equipment

Designed for industrial automation, robotics, machine tools and material handling equipment, Nexen profile rail brakes help protect personnel, prevent unintended axis movement and support compliance with modern machine safety standards. 

Nexen safety-rated rail brakes clamp directly to the linear guide rail - providing rigid holding force during emergency stops, power failures and maintenance procedures. Many Nexen rail brakes feature a spring, air-released design that automatically applies the brake if air pressure or electrical power is lost, helping protect both operators and equipment.

Engineers also choose Nexen rail brakes because they integrate with many of the world's leading linear guide systems, making them ideal for new machine designs and retrofit projects. Their compact footprint, dependable performance and functional safety certifications make them a trusted solution for OEM machine builders, system integrators and manufacturing engineers.
