ATEK Drive Solutions

Wave brake systems for ships

The individual wave brake systems can optionally be equipped with split brake discs and even after flooding with up to five meters of water column (higher values on request) offer full functionality. The systems are designed for a flooding duration of up to 72 hours and continue to operate reliably afterwards. They withstand shock loads of up to 150g. The calculable proof of shock resistance as well as complete ILS documentation will be prepared for you by ATEK Drive Solutions GmbH.

Braking

  • Quick shutdown of the shaft
    Support of the maneuvering process
  • Improved maneuverability
  • Support in slowing down the shaft
  • Preventing flow-induced rotation during non-operation
