Greater Performance. Greater Freedom. Great Brake.
Parking at the push of a button or with a traditional manual lever - our customers have the choice:
Conventional parking brakes:
Duo-servo brakes
A highly efficient, self-boosting drum brake, fitted in the brake disc hat. It is operated mechanically and is completely separate from the service brake. Its main field of application is premium-class vehicles and SUVs.
Combined caliper
The combination of service brake and parking brake in the classic FN or pinslider design is a cost optimized solution for vehicles in the lower and upper mid-size class.
Electric Parking Brake (EPB) Systems:
In addition to stopping the vehicle, the second important function of a vehicle's brakes is to hold the vehicle in place and keep it from rolling. The advantages of an electric parking brake include various assistance functions for greater safety and comfort. The electric parking brake also offers various options for design of the vehicle's interior, since there is no parking brake lever.
We offer two different EPB system solutions for the full spectrum of customer requirements.
EPB-CI
The "caliper integrated" electric parking brake (EPB-CI) is a solution for floating caliper disc brakes. A floating caliper is combined with the components of an electric parking brake. The electrical operation takes place via an electronic system integrated into the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) system. The system also consists of two electrical combined calipers as well as the EPB-specific operation software.

EPB-DS
The EPB-DS ("duo-servo") is a solution for duo-servo brakes. This is a highly efficient self-boosting drum brake, fitted in the brake disc hat. The EPB-DS is used especially in premium-class vehicles, sports cars, and SUVs in whose case separating the service brake and the parking brake is particularly important.
EPB-DB
The electric drum parking brake (EPB-DB) is a solution for vehicles with purely drum brakes on the rear axle. The way a drum brake works is via the ・simplex・ principle. The electrical operation takes place via an electronic system integrated into the ESC system. The EPB-DB is tailored especially to smaller vehicles, which to date have been equipped only with a mechanical parking brake that is integrated into the existing drum brake on the rear axle. The system consists of two drum brakes with integrated electrical actuators and an electronic system that is integrated into the ESC and has the EPB specific operation software.
Shared advantages of all our EPB systems:
Simple operation at the touch of a button
Emergency brake function in the event of service brake failure
Implementation of various assistance functions for safetyand comfort in conjunction with the electronic brake system
Since there is no parking brake lever, OEMs additionally have new options in terms of design in the vehicle・s interior. |
