Watch videoManual, Pneumatic and Hydraulic Brakes
Simplex, Renova’s caliper brakes, is the combination of a disc brake with one or more calipers. The peculiarity of this system is its modularity and flexibility, as it is possible to install one or more calipers with the possibility to activate and deactivate each one according to the required torque.
Simplex caliper brakes are suitable for the most various applications thanks to a wide range of models, including manual, pneumatic or hydraulic brakes, and are also available in the fail-safe version (with spring applied) to guarantee the operators’ safety during maintenance and/or in emergency situations.

DatasheetMANUAL CALIPER BRAKES
Simplex manual caliper bakes are manually activated thanks to the operator intervention and they are used in all industrial applications where the pneumatic or hydraulic supply may be absent. This type of brakes is normally selected to allow static, maneuvering or tensioning braking.
PNEUMATIC CALIPER BRAKES
The positive pneumatic caliper brakes are therefore activated from the air pressure, which can vary between 0 and 6 bar modifying the braking force in turn. Once the power required is reached it will remain constant, regardless the brake pads wear. The negative pneumatic caliper brakes exploit, instead, the spring actions to activate braking system in a very short time.
HYDRAULIC CALIPER BRAKES
Hydraulic caliper brakes have been designed for industrial applications using hydraulic supply. In their negative version they work by springs activation.
