Gearboxes and brakes

Gearboxes are mechanical devices used to reduce the speed of rotary movement of a load. They work by converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to generate torque and reduce the speed of the load in a hydraulic system. Generally used in applications where the load needs to be reduced to a speed lower than the input speed. Examples: conveyors, winches, agricultural machinery, among others.

Hydraulic brakes are devices used to control or stop the movement of a load in a hydraulic system. They work by converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to generate frictional force and control the speed of the load or stop it completely. They are widely used in heavy industrial equipment, such as cranes, forklifts, cranes, construction machines, among others. They are designed to withstand high loads and forces, and can be controlled manually or automatically.
