KTR-STOP® M-xxx (passive) spring-actuated fixed caliper brake
Mainly used as a holding brake or safety brake
The brake caliper M-xxx is designed as a fixed caliper brake the benefit of which is that the maintenance intervals for readjusting the wear of pad can be increased compared to floating caliper brakes. The use of guide rings and the option to fully wear off the pads allow for the possibility to implement long maintenance intervals and optimize operating costs.
This brake is mainly used as a holding brake or safety brake, but can also be used as a service brake with higher performance drives. All features of this brake are aiming at operating reliably under most demanding environmental conditions while generating lowest operating costs thanks to its design.
