Applications:
The high capacity of these brakes makes them particularly suitable as service- or secondary emergency brakes e.g. on hoists, slewing drives and belt conveyors
Other applications are in material handling, mechanical engineering and wind turbine industry, where high holding forces are required independent of the direction of rotation within limited space
