Brake system for metro cars
The brake system for metro cars is based on a modular system. It controls the pressure in the train brake pipe, electro pneumatic brake with direct effect, emergency brake, spring parking brake and air suspension system, which ensures the constant distance between the car bogie and cabin regardless the actual load. The trains are also equipped with an wheel slide protection system to protect the wheels.

Brake systems for trams
HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM FOR LOCATION ON THE AXLE
The tram may be equipt motor bogies and trailer bogies. The motor bogie is equipped with an electrohydraulic passive brake with an automatic slack adjuster, the trailer bogie with an electrohydraulic active brake. Both the active brake and the passive brake are designed for propotional additional braking of the tram, as a parking brake or as a fully-fledged substitute brake in the event of an EDB failure. The delivery includes control electronics.
ELECTROHYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM FOR LOCATION ON THE TRACTION MOTOR
The electrohydraulic passive tram brake with an automatic slack adjuster is designed for proportional additional braking of motor bogies, as a parking brake or as a fully-fledged substitute brake in the event of an EDB failure. The delivery includes control electronics.
ELECTROMECHANIC BRAKE SYSTEM
The electrohydraulic passive tram brake with an automatic slack adjuster is designed for proportional additional braking of motor bogies, as a parking brake or as a fully-fledged substitute brake in the event of an EDB failure. It is a system „ Brake by wire“- an environmentally-friendly and compact solution. The delivery includes control electronics and a backup power module.
Brake system for train units
Brake system for train units consists of an electro pneumatic brake, automatic brake, parking brake and emergency brake. The system is also equipped with auxiliary pneumatic circuits, such as collector control, sand blasting or cleaning of wheel surfaces, which are in contact with the rail. Pressure control in the train brake pipe is ensured by DAKO panel brake valve. The trains are also equipped with an wheel slide protection system to protect the wheels and with an air suspension system.
Brake system for passenger coaches
This system is based on an automatic DAKO CV1nD system and also comprise an electro pneumatic brake system, control system for electromagnetic track brake and DAKO PZ4 emergency brake system. The bogies are equipped with disc brake units, three position wheel slide protection dump valves and speed sensors installed on the train axle. the passenger coach is also equipped with a DAKO wheel slide protection system.
