Soft braking makes mine hoists strong
Access shafts and hoisting systems are essential components for mining activities. To optimise transport, stopping and parking operations, these elevator machineries need high-quality redundant controls for speed, acceleration and deceleration. When a leading manufacturer of mine hoists Coal¬field Services needed a custom braking solution for one of its setups, it chose Svendborg Brakes and Twiflex, two brands of Altra Industrial Motion Corp., for the production of a reliable system.
