Take Advantage of our Expertise
Wind turbines are getting bigger and bigger, and they are being erected in ever more obscure parts of the globe. We already now see wind farms in some of the world’s most impassable and challenging regions. This places increasingly greater demands on the brake systems designed to keep these wind turbines from getting out of control in violent weather conditions. Brakes are our passion. We deliver controlled braking technology via intelligent braking systems. In fact, this is the only thing we do. To some, this focus may seem a bit narrow, but to us it makes wonderful sense, as does our market situation. Through our diligent efforts, we have established a position as the leading supplier of both yaw and rotor brake systems to the global wind industry.
Close To Your World
We are close to you, no matter where in the world you are located. We understand the challenges you face, whether your projects are based in a remote area of the US, a wind farm on the North Sea, the highlands of Peru or demanding regions with low to middle wind speeds. In addition, we also have a very good idea of the needs you will encounter in the coming years and we are already busy developing products to meet your demands. We conduct rigorous and repeated testing to prepare today for even the most extreme requirements for braking systems in the business of tomorrow.
We Assume Responsibility
Responsibility for your productivity and safety. Responsibility for the quality of our products. Responsibility for the value chain we are a part of. Responsibility for the health and safety of our employees. And, ultimately, responsibility for the Earth’s environment. You don’t know the true price of safety until you need it. We have designed our brakes and braking systems to perform and endure to an extraordinary degree. We service brakes that have functioned perfectly for 30, 40 and even 50 years. Our systems last longer and are simple to service and maintain. This means less downtime and accordingly higher availability, which brings us to the question of price. And not surprisingly, it turns out that trying to save money by not installing the proper brakes and braking systems can quickly prove to be an expensive choice.
Our Solution Provides You With World Class Quality in Every Single Component
Nobody can be good at everything – when you maintain your focus, you can achieve world class quality without superhuman effort. We have always said that we focus on braking systems for heavy and demanding jobs. But the truth is that we are actually even more specialised. We have positioned ourselves at the top of a value chain, where we concentrate on the key components, such as product development, testing, innovation, systems, software, product assembly and shipment, as well as implementation and service on our customers’ premises. We have mastered these processes. And we let other specialists take care of the rest. For example, we do not believe that we can achieve world class quality in casting and milling of the metal parts in our brakes. But others can, and we have found them. And we pass on the advantages to you by delivering world class braking systems that are unsurpassed on the market today.
One-stop Braking
The demands on the braking systems of the future are growing ever more complex. For example, the brakes must be both smaller and more effective. They must be manufactured and operate in a sustainably sound manner. They must be equipped with ever more features while continually reducing maintenance requirements. We are prepared to meet all of these challenges. Svendborg Brakes develops braking technology to meet highly complex demands in close consultation with our customers, making us a global leader in the market for advanced hydraulic braking systems. Most of our customers desire complete, end-to-end braking solutions. And this is exactly what we offer. At Svendborg Brakes, we have the expertise and resources to provide everything needed for safe and reliable advanced braking systems.
Complete Braking Solutions For All Types of Applications
Svendborg Brakes produces reliable and safe braking systems for a wide range of applications. Our engineers design highly flexible power units with full safety functionality and performance, thereby giving you a choice of braking options from a single source. The product range comprises both hydraulically applied and fail-safe spring applied brake callipers ranging from 2,000 to 500,000N clamping force. We also manufacture hydraulic power packs and intelligent brake control units.
