Turborex Brake System
The Turborex Brake System upgrades any existing roll stand with customized adapters. Its advanced multi-disc design distributes load across eight disc surfaces (instead of the usual two), reducing pressure on each pad by a factor of ten. With dual high-speed cooling fans, the system keeps brake pads in the “no-wear zone,” extending the lifespan of internal components. In fact, we guarantee at least five years without brake pad or disc replacement.
One key advantage of the Turborex Brake System is that it produces virtually no brake pad dust, ensuring a cleaner work environment with minimal wear. Its low operating temperatures prevent glazing, squeaking, and excess wear, which further extends the system’s lifespan. In addition, the Turborex Brake System is designed for easy integration, using an identical mounting system to many existing brake models so that most machines require no modifications.

The Turborex Brake by Renova is the only forced air-cooled, multi-disc brake on the market. This patented system dramatically reduces internal temperatures and guarantees 42,000 maintenance-free working hours under extreme conditions, or approximately 5 years at 24/7 operation. A warning light activated via a temperature sensor alerts operations of increased operating temperatures due to possible fan malfunction and or contamination, or other interference.
The system starts with the exclusive multi-disc system that spreads the braking pressure over 4 discs and 32 pads. The friction is widely distributed and this keeps any one component from overheating.
The heat generated by braking is handled by the dual in-line fan system. One fan blows air into the brake and the other blows air out. This consistently supplies cool outside air and pushes heated air out of the brake.
With the two high-speed fans, the reduced disc size, and the 8 braking surfaces, temperatures are kept low enough to keep the brake pads inside the “no-wear zone”—providing you with an extended life on all internal parts.
Because of the lowered temperatures, web tension control is improved at any line speed and brake pad wear and pollution are virtually eliminated. The Turborex Brake is 100% adaptable to all existing rollstands and Erhardt+Leimer bridge control system. No modifications are required on the machine to upgrade.
The Turborex Brake is the OEM brake for Fosber and Erhardt+Leimer.
