Electromagnetic brakes for Ropeway technology

Electromagnetic spring-applied brakes, electromagnetic brakes, clutches & development for cable cars & gondolas

In ropeway technology, where safety and precision have top priority, reliable braking systems are indispensable. Ski lifts and gondola lifts must stop safely and precisely even under extreme conditions such as steep terrain, capricious weather or sudden power failures. This is where PRECIMA's electromagnetic safety brakes come into play:

They work according to the proven fail-safe principle and ensure that moving masses are positioned and held safely even in the event of a power interruption. The robust FDW, FDD and FWW series have proven particularly successful in ropeway technology. The FDW series impresses with its dust and water resistance and is ideal for use in harsh environments. The FDD series offers a noise-optimized double brake, which ensures quiet and low-vibration operation, especially in sensitive areas such as gondola lifts.

FDW and FDD brakes for the highest safety requirements

Braking torques from 2 - 600 Nm(FDW) or 2x3.5 - 2x1200(FDD)

  • Dust & waterproof(FDW)
  • Low-noise operation for trouble-free use(FDD)
  • Double brakes work independently of each other(FDD)
  • Redundant design in accordance with BGV C1 and EN 81 for maximum safety(FDD)

options (Model Dependent)

The advantages of PRECIMA spring-applied brakes are obvious: they are active without current and are only released when energized, which guarantees maximum safety. They not only enable precise stopping and holding, but are also able to function reliably even in the event of unforeseen events such as power failures or technical faults.

PRECIMA offers both proven standard brake series and individually developed solutions that are precisely tailored to the specific requirements of your system. From the initial consultation to development and expansion through to service and maintenance - we provide you with comprehensive support.

We look forward to your challenges! Let's do it - together!
