Drum brake type RT

The drum brake Type RT with synchro-lifting-mechanism offers reliable braking performance for industrial applications. It impresses with its precise brake force distribution, high load capacity and low-maintenance design. Ideal for use in conveyor systems and machines where maximum safety and efficiency are required.

The RFT RT drum brake meets the highest industry standards, designed in accordance with DIN 15435 – and developed and produced completely in Germany.

  • Synchro-lifting-mechanism – ensures a constant distance between the brake lining and the drum, completely automatically – for consistent braking performance and a longer service life
  • Adjustable braking torque up to 10,000 Nm – flexible adaptation to a wide range of requirements – from lightweight construction to powerhouses
  • Single-bar brake lever – simple design that brakes reliably in an emergency
  • Automatic closing in the event of a power failure
  • DIN standard sizes – available in Ø 200,  250, 315, 400L, 400V, 500, 630, and 710 mm – also available for brake drums
  • Spring-applied brake & electrically released – combines mechanical reliability with electrical control

  • Braking by spring force
  • Lifting by thruster
  • Brake torque adjustable
  • Self-acting in case of power failure

  • Synchro-lifting-mechanism (guarantees automatically an uniform lifting gap between brake lining and brake drum)
  • Optimal when using an automatic wear adjustment (AVN)

The RT drum brake can be expanded with numerous special equipment options:

  • Limit switch systems (mechanical or inductive): “Brake on / off / adjust”
  • Hand lifting device and safety limit switch for its use
  • Brake retarder for time-delayed braking
  • Automatic wear adjustment (AVN) – ideal in combination with the synchro-lifting-mechanism
  • Brake linings bonded and riveted in standard design – other qualities and friction coefficients available on request
  • Relubricatable bearings, support devices for horizontal or suspended mounting with support
  • Special painting and complete special designs possible

  • Crane technology
  • Storage technology
  • Mining & Material handling
  • Offshore/Ship
  • Railbound hall roofs and gates
  • Steel industry
  • Wind industry
