Component Identification
A multi-disk brake consists of several internally toothed plates (10) on an internal plate carrier and several externally toothed plates (9) on an external
plate carrier which is connected in a fixed manner to the transmission housing. Single-sided lamella are used on the B1 multidisk brake (B1) and on
the B3 multidisk brake (B3). On this type of lamella the friction lining is only applied on one side.
Among other things, this improves heat distribution in the disk pack, the design of the disk pack is more compact, the load-bearing capacity is
increased and the mass is reduced. Furthermore, disks coated on both sides are used on multi-disk brake B2 (B2) and multidisk brake BR (BR).
