Working Principle
The Thruster Brake is a fail-safe device. Braking force is applied to the brake shoes by a pre-stressed compression spring. When power is supplied to the integrated electro-hydraulic thruster, it overcomes the spring force and moves the brake shoes clear of the drum, allowing machinery to operate. When power is cut, the spring instantly applies the brake shoes to the drum, retarding speed and holding the load securely.
