DEVICE FOR BRAKING ROTATING AND/OR SLEWING GEARS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SUCH A DEVICE, AND PRODUCTION MACHINE HAVING SUCH A BRAKING DEVICE

摘要

Device and process for braking rotating and/or slewing gears of work machines comprising at least one dynamic service brake for decelerating a rotating and/or pivotal movement of the rotating and/or slewing gear, and at least one static holding brake (16), by means of which the rotating and/or slewing gear can be locked in one position, wherein at least one sensor (14) is assigned to the dynamic service brake (11a) and/or to the static holding brake (16), said sensor detecting the current movement of the rotating and/or slewing gear, and the sensor (14) being connected to a controller (13, 19) that detects an actuation of the dynamic service brake (11, 11a) said controller actuating the static holding brake (16) when in case of continued rotating and/or pivoting movement of the rotating and/or slewing gear when a dynamic service brake (11a) is still actuated.
