Summary：
Yes, industrial caliper brakes can be automatically adjusted for clearance to ensure proper operation and consistent performance. The primary purpose of automatic clearance adjustment is to maintain proper contact between the brake's friction pads and discs, and to compensate for friction pad wear during the wear process to maintain consistent braking.
The mechanism for automatic clearance adjustment is usually one of the following:
Automatic Adjustment Screw: There is an automatic adjustment screw inside the brake that automatically adjusts the gap between the friction pad and the brake disc as the brake operates. As the friction pads wear, the screw automatically rotates forward or backward to maintain proper contact pressure on the friction pads.
Spring Mechanism: The spring mechanism in the brake adjusts the gap between the friction pad and the brake disc by compressing or releasing the spring. As the friction pads wear, the spring automatically adjusts so that the friction pads always maintain the proper contact force.
Hydraulic Adjustment: Some industrial brakes utilize a hydraulic system to automatically adjust the clearance. Through hydraulic pressure transfer, the gap between the brake disc and the friction pads can be automatically adjusted as the friction pads wear to maintain consistent contact pressure.
