No. A travel brake is designed to control motion during normal operation—accelerating, decelerating, and stopping the crane along its rails. It’s sized around travel speeds, inertia, and duty cycle. A rem badai (wind brake) is designed to secure a parked crane against wind loads and prevent unintended travel, wheel lift, or derailment during strong winds or typhoons. Its priority is high holding force and reliability under power loss, corrosion, and harsh outdoor conditions.
Di atas crane gantry luar ruangan, umum menggunakan kedua sistem: rem perjalanan untuk operasi, dan rem badai (pengunci rel, rem kerucut, rem atas rel, atau rem roda) untuk parkir dan pengamanan badai. Rem badai sering kali aman gagal sehingga mereka aktif saat listrik mati—penting selama cuaca buruk. Pemilihan harus mempertimbangkan jenis rel, gaya tahan yang dibutuhkan, standar angin setempat, dan akses pemeliharaan.
