Steel industry

High ambient temperatures and dust-filled air are typical environmental conditions associated with the processing of steel. This environment places tough demands on the drive systems and brakes used in steel making facilities. Hot metal, semi-automated rolling mill and overhead loading cranes require the most reliable, maintenance-friendly braking systems available.  

The engineers and designers at PINTSCH BUBENZER possess decades of experience on such applications for the steel industry and know the problem zones and pitfalls of such applications back to front.  

Service brakes are installed at the (high-speed) gear input shaft to hold the load safely.


Couplings serve for compensating relocation movements and for absorbing torque shocks that occur on starting and under load.

Buffers are hydraulic units with damping propertiesadaptable to a wide range of operating conditions.

Emergency brakes provide an additional safeguard for the installation, e.g., if a gear shaft should fracture.


Monitoring systems guarantee the 100% availability of the equipment and minimize maintenance expenses.
