friction brake

Friction brakes are used to control the speed of the train.

If required, friction brakes on the motor cars could also be used.

Hydrostatic drive with no friction brakes are used in industrial vehicles.

It's even used in some motor sports to reduce the risk of the friction brakes overheating.

Engine braking is a generally accepted practice and can help save wear on friction brakes.

Friction brakes eventually wear out with use and require replacement of braking components.

Friction brakes apply pressure on two separate objects to slow the vehicle in a controlled manner.

These devices are friction brakes which are designed for descending ropes.

Durability - Friction brakes have wear surfaces that must be renewed periodically.

Then he switched to the internal battery, slowly released the friction brakes, and again fed power into the drive motors.

The Farcots refined the design with friction brakes, and in 1864 added an air dashpot.

It had a pneumatic suspension and friction brakes operated by the team of pullers.

This article refers to disc brakes as an example, but the principle is the same for other types of friction brakes.

Gently Morgan released the friction brakes that were holding Spider motionless on the tape.

The sliding plates rubbed against each other, screeching like a heavy maglev engaging friction brakes.

When the train was to be stopped, rheostatic braking was used first, after which friction brakes on the trailer cars were brought into action.

Tev asked, referring to the friction brakes that explosively deployed against the interior of the elevator shaft.

This design, known as regenerative braking, is more efficient than conventional friction brakes which simply convert the vehicle's momentum into wasted heat.

When B&M was first founded, the linear magnetic eddy brake had yet to be developed, so it used friction brakes as its main braking system.

It is there for if you completely top off your battery, you’re still going down a mountain, and you don’t want to use your friction brakes.”

Compared to electro-pneumatic friction brakes, braking with the traction motors can be regulated faster improving the performance of wheel slide protection.

Ford claims that nearly 94 percent energy recovery is achieved by first delivering full regenerative braking followed by friction brakes during city driving.

Unlike the normal breaking system, which is magnetic, the emergency brakes are friction brakes - clamps, powered by air pressure, that grip the rails.

Place your foot gently on the brake pedal and the electric braking force increases, while press harder again and the normal friction brakes come into effect.

The hub motors eliminates the need for friction brakes, mechanical transmissions, drive shafts and U joints, reducing costs and weight.
