Tunnel Boring Machine
The brake energy has to be managed safely and quickly with an external brake resistor.
Situation
The belt conveyor of a tunnel boring machine has to transport the excavation material.
Problem
To secure the necessary belt tension, two drives are working with different speed against each other. That causes braking energy in one of the two drives.
Goal
The brake energy has to be managed safely and quickly with an external brake resistor.

Solution
Our safe, customized brake resistor combination BAS4.8010D-1000H (4.8 kW / 30 Ohm / IP20) is provided and connected as an external braking resistor.
Advantages

Managing brake energy
The brake energy is managed safely and quickly.
Further Advantages
