Industrial Drum Brakes for Heavy-Duty Applications

HMIC is your expert manufacturer for high-performance industrial drum brakes. Engineered for critical safety applications, our drum brakes provide reliable deceleration, stopping, and holding for the world’s most demanding heavy-duty machinery.

Our drum brake systems are renowned for their robust cast-steel construction, superior braking torque, and exceptional service life. They are the proven, cost-effective solution for ensuring operational safety and uptime.

Comprehensive Drum Brake Solutions

We manufacture a complete range of industrial drum brakes to meet diverse operational needs. Our product line is categorized by actuation method, ensuring you find the precise solution for your application.

Key Product Categories:

  • Electro-Hydraulic Drum Brakes: The industry standard for cranes, hoists, and conveyors. These fail-safe drum brakes (e.g., YWZ, YWZ4, YWZ13 series) are actuated by our reliable Ed/YT1 thrusters.
  • Electromagnetic Drum Brakes: Ideal for applications requiring precise control and rapid response (e.g., MW(Z), ZWZ series).
  • Hydraulic & Pneumatic Drum Brakes: Robust solutions for environments where hydraulic or pneumatic power is preferred.
  • Manual & Foot-Operated Brakes: Including band brakes and foot-pedal brakes for specific control and holding tasks.

Trusted in Demanding Industries

Our drum brakes are the trusted choice for engineering projects and OEMs across key sectors, including:

  • Hoisting & Cranes: Overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and hoist systems.
  • Port & Terminal: Ship-to-shore (STS) cranes, rail-mounted gantry (RMG) cranes, and conveyors.
  • Mining & Bulk Handling: Mine hoists, long-distance belt conveyors, and stacker-reclaimers.
  • Steel & Metallurgy: Casting cranes, rolling mills, and transport vehicles.

Electro-Hydraulic Drum Brakes

Our most versatile and widely used series, electro-hydraulic drum brakes provide smooth, reliable braking and fast release when paired with our Ed or YT1 series thrusters. They are the preferred braking solution for cranes, belt conveyors, and various transport machines.

YWZ4, YWZ8, YWZ13 Series: General-purpose electro-hydraulic drum brakes with proven technology for a wide range of applications.

YWZ3B, YWZ9, YWZ10 Series: Equipped with an auto-equalization device for shoe clearance, ensuring balanced performance and consistent braking.

Electromagnetic Drum Brakes

Electromagnetic drum brakes utilize the force of an electromagnet for fast-acting, precise control. Available in both power-off (fail-safe) and power-on (normally-open) configurations, they are ideal for applications requiring rapid response times.

Other Actuation Drum Brakes

We also offer a selection of brakes with specialized actuation methods to accommodate various power sources and operational needs.
