Noise-free linings for wind turbines

NoiseFree brake liningsCarlisle Industrial Brake & Friction introduces NoiseFree brake linings for wind turbine yaw braking applications. The NoiseFree range of brake linings have been specifically developed by Carlisle to meet the demanding requirements of yaw braking applications where a high-brake friction co-efficient is required in combination with a long, service lifetime and noise-free operation. NoiseFree linings are manufactured from a proprietary (non-asbestos) material at the company’s ISO9001 friction plant, where the friction material is co-molded directly onto the backing plate to provide excellent shear strength and in-service integrity. This unique construction process ensures the NoiseFree range of linings out-perform any other organic lining available, enabling customers to increase their service intervals and maximize the revenue generated from their wind turbines. NoiseFree linings are available in a range of many different shapes, dimensions and thicknesses to fit all commonly used wind turbine calipers, including products supplied by Svendborg Brakes, Sime-Stromag, and Antec.
