Brake Selection
The brake size must be chosen to give required braking torque and to dissipate the energy during stopping without over-heating the disc. Brake torque is often related to drive motor torque by an arbitrary service factor typically 75% -100% full load torque for crane travel and similar inertial loads which tend to be self-stopping or 150% -200% for crane hoists and other overhauling loads. If a precise stop time or distance is specified, then the brake torque must be calculated.

Motor FL torque is given by:
   - [(kW x 9550) / rpm]Nm or [(HP x 5250) / rpm]Lbft
