ENERGY-RECOVERY HYBRID BRAKES
REVOLUTION
Revolution’s patented design is the combination of a pneumatic brake and a regenerative motor, which operate with hybrid regulation always guaranteeing the required braking performances.
REGENERATIVE BRAKING
Revolution recovers the excess energy usually wasted during braking activities and returns it to the power line of the plant

Patented energy saving concept
In Renova we care about our customers and our planet, so we constantly research innovative solutions that improve the plant’s productivity and sustainability.
For this purpose we designed and patented a revolutionary 100% Plug & Play braking system that partially replaces the pneumatic energy and recovers this energy, normally transformed into heat and dust, by returning it to the power line of the plant: Revolution hybrid brake.
Revolution’s patented design is the combination of a pneumatic brake and a regenerative motor, which operate with hybrid regulation always guaranteeing the required braking performances. Brake and motor always work together but combining efforts in variable ways over time. The Revolution’s pneumatic brake serves primarily as a support function, to the motor. The Revolution’s motor instead takes the lead in daily operations.
In addition, Revolution brings many other benefits:
- splicing without paper tearing
- splicing at least 25% faster line speed
- higher product quality
- constant web tension control
- zero maintenance
- higher safety level
Why REVOLUTION
REVOLUTION RECOVERS THE EXCESS ENERGY USUALLY WASTED DURING BRAKING ACTIVITIES
TOP PERFORMANCE
The Revolution’s motor takes the lead in daily operations while providing great sensitivity as it does not suffer performance drop due to the heat.
THE MOST ECO-FRIENDLY
The brake works the least, hence the brake pad wear and dust emissions are eliminated.
2KWH PAYBACK PER ROLL STAND
The Revolution’s motor recovers the electric energy and allows the plant to instantly benefit from it.
SPLICING WITHOUT PAPER TEARING
When splicing, the motor accelerates the roll on its axis in the direction of the splice, thus overcoming its initial inertia. This allows to increase the splicing speed by at least 25%.
MOTORIZED REWIND OF THE ROLL
Eliminates the manual intervention and ensures a higher safety level for the operator according to the Technical Standards ISO 11228.
INDUSTRY 4.0
Revolution’s integrated system enables to establish a direct dialog with production systems in a plant’s ERP.

WITH REVOLUTION SAY STOP TO
MULTIDISC PNEUMATIC BRAKE
Revolution is equipped with a multidisc pneumatic brake that serves primarily as a support function, to the motor, in daily operations or in the event of an emergency stop.
REGENERATIVE MOTOR
The Revolution’s motor takes the lead in daily operations. It carries out the web tension control while providing great sensitivity as it does not suffer performance drop due to the heat.
