OPERATION Westcar BD Drum Brakes

    • WC Drum and disc brake are negative
    •The braking force is obtained by means of a spring that, through
a suitablesystem of levers,transmits its amplified action to the
braking pads.
    • An electrohydraulic or pneumatic thrustor makes an opposite
force to the spring, causing the pads open, therefore the brake to
release.
    •The braking force of the linings against the drum can be modulated
by adjusting the spring.
    • Braking torque changes depending on braking force modulation.
