Stüwe brake systems
Stüwe brake systems TYPE SBS
Stüwe brake systems are versatile and suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. They can be used as holding, stopping or service brakes. We offer both active and passive brakes in various designs, which are actuated mechanically, pneumatically or hydraulically. One of our core competences is the individualized adaptation of our brake systems to the specific requirements of our customers.
Pneumatic and mechanical brakes:
- Active and passive versions available
- Suitable as a holding, parking and service brake for light to high loads
- Transmission of braking forces up to 35 kN
- Special sealing materials ensure a long service life
- Simple and safe handling
- Virtually maintenance-free operation (depending on the operating conditions)
- Variable brake pad materials, adapted to the application
Active hydraulic brakes:
- Safe transmission of braking forces due to high operating pressure (160 bar)
- Up to 200 kN contact pressure
- High-quality condition sensors with approval from renowned maritime classification societies
- Adaptation of brake pad materials to individual applications
- High-quality corrosion protection for marine propulsion systems and wind turbines
- 3.2 Acceptance possible on request
- 100% Function test of each brake before delivery
Stüwe Stop-Turn-Block System
Versatility at the highest level
The STB system from STÜWE was developed for propeller shafts with a main power of up to 25 MW in large yachts, cruise ships, ferries or commercial vessels developed. Thanks to a modular system, our devices can be used with all three, only two or only one of the main STOP-TURN-BLOCK functions can be supplied.
Advantages of the STB system from STÜWE:
- Simple, safe and robust design with high corrosion protection
- Simple and safe operation thanks to interlocks in the control unit
- All electronic components, including sensors, are certified by a classification society
- Only one sensor type for all functions means high availability at sea and worldwide
- Easy maintenance, e.g. when replacing brake pads
STOP: After disconnecting the main motor, the shaft can be stopped by a hydraulically, pneumatically or electrically actuated brake system. The powerful Power pack is included in the scope of delivery and Both the interface and the function are to Customised to your requirements.
TURN:The main shaft can be rotated in both directions without starting the main motor. The rotator is electrically operated and is normally equipped with a safety hand wheel for emergency operation.
BLOCK:The shaft can be blocked by a pin that is inserted into the intended holes in the discs. The pin can be operated easily by hand or conveniently by handwheel or electrically.
