Hydraulic Thruster Brake Manufacturer in Ahmedabad, India

A thruster brake retards the speed of moving machinery and holds it when stationary: the braking force is applied to the shoes by a spring through a lever and rod mechanism, and released hydraulically. Super Mech Industries manufactures hydraulic thruster brakes at its Odhav, Ahmedabad factory for emergency stops and holding duty on cranes and hoists, steel manufacturing, mining equipment and heavy industrial machinery, and machines the matching brake drum gear and pin bush couplings in the same works.

Frequently Asked Questions

The spring applies the braking force to the shoes through a lever and rod mechanism, so the brake is on whenever the thruster is de-energised; the hydraulic thruster releases it. That is what makes it suitable for emergency stops and holding duty.

Yes. Brake drum gear couplings and brake drum pin bush couplings are made in the same factory, so the drum diameter is matched to the brake. See the brake drum gear coupling manufacturer page.

The product record lists mining equipment, steel manufacturing, cranes and hoists, wind turbines and heavy industrial machinery.

Thruster brakes are the high-braking-torque, heavy-duty choice for cranes, hoists and mills; electromagnetic disc brakes are compact, fast-response units for conveyors, packaging and automated lines. The comparison article linked below goes through the selection.

Yes. Super Mech Industries holds ISO 9001:2015 certification (Cert 09114716A) and government ZED certification, and manufactures at Odhav, Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
