MD3 Series

APPLICATIONS

• Service brake
• Safety brake
• Emergency brake

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT

• Zinc coated steel structure - epoxy resin painting - RAL 3000 final colouring.
• Stainless steel pins, self lubricating bushes on main joints
• Asbestos free linings, bonded to easy-to-replace plates.
• Friction coefficient µ =0,4
• Braking torque scale indicator

OPERATION

• The disc brake MATEC MD are negative brakes (spring loaded).
• The braking force is obtained by means of a spring that, through a suitable system of levers, transmits its amplified action to the braking pads, where the linings are fitted.
• An electro-hydraulic or pneumatic thrustor makes an apposite force to the spring load, causing the pads to open, therefore the brake to release.
• The braking force given by the linings against the disk can be modulated by adjusting the spring. (see standard features).
• Braking torque changes depending on braking force modulation.

OPTIONALS

• Automatic wear compensation RG. Linings max wear indicator, fitted on rod FCU.
• Open brake indicator, either fitted on thrustor or on spring set ( to be specified) FCA
• Brake manual opening lever LSM.

THRUSTOR TYPES

• MATEC type "M" electrohydraulic
