Hydraulic heavy-duty brakes have been part of the RINGSPANN portfolio for a long time. Now, however, the company is presenting a real novelty: DR085 FEK 200 spring-operated and electrically opening rail clamps. Manufacturers of port and container cranes in particular, as well as conveying, handling and shipyard facilities for use in areas close to water and offshore are thus offered a brake technology alternative for the implementation of environmentally friendly drive systems. Since the design of the new storm brake is similar to its hydraulic sister models, it is also suitable for modernisation and retrofitting.
