Crane Brakes – Electromagnetic & Thruster

Fail-safe spring-applied, electrically released. Builder estimates brake torque, stop time, kinetic energy and budget price for your duty.

  • Fail-safe Spring Applied
  • Manual Release & Microswitch
  • IP54–IP65
  • Asbestos-free Linings

Estimator is budgetary; final selection per FEM/IEC practice after gearbox, inertia and thermal checks.

Crane brakes – disc and thruster
  • Fail-Safe
  • Proof-Test
  • FEM Duty Guided
  • 2-Year Warranty
🛑

Control

Spring applied, electrically released for safe stopping and holding.

🧲

Disc / Drum

DC/AC disc brakes for motors; electro-hydraulic thruster drum brakes for CT/LT/hoist.

🛡️

Protection

IP54–IP65, manual release, position microswitches, dust covers, heaters.

📄

Documentation

Drawings, test report, lining certificate; CE/ISO practices.

Right Brake for Each Motion

  • Electromagnetic disc: compact on motor shaft, fast response; ideal for hoists & small CT/LT.
  • Thruster drum (shoe): robust, adjustable torque; common on CT/LT and heavy duty hoists.
  • Caliper brakes: for large diameters or external discs.
  • Thermal design: checks kinetic energy per stop and per hour for lining life.
