Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fan maintenance, and in particular to a brake device for fan maintenance. Background Art

[0002] In the steel industry, fans are key power equipment and their importance is self-evident. Fans are responsible for providing the necessary ventilation, cooling, gas transportation and other key functions for the steel production process.
