Yaw Disk Brake in WInd Power

     The yaw brake produced by CTECH Machinery SDN BHD is the executing component of the wind turbine yaw system, mainly used to fix the position of the nacelle and prevent non active rotation. Its core components include:
     Brake disc: fixed on the tower or main frame, it is the surface on which the braking torque acts.
     Friction pad (brake pad): It is a component that directly executes braking by generating friction when in contact with the brake disc.
     Hydraulic piston or electromagnetic actuator: provides braking force, pushing the friction plate to press the brake disc.
     Spring component: When hydraulic or electromagnetic force is released, it pushes the friction plate to separate from the brake disc (normally closed) or press it tightly (normally open).
     Brake caliper body (caliper): The housing structure that carries the above components is usually made of high-strength cast iron. ‌‌
     In addition, depending on the specific design, it may also include seals, installation accessories, and automatic wear compensation devices to ensure stable braking torque. ‌‌
