Sustainable Braking®
The Future of Safe, Efficient, and Eco-Friendly Aviation Braking...
The patented Ogab® Sustainable Braking system enhances safety, optimises brake performance, and slashes the environmental impact of braking in light aircraft. Preventing excessive heat build-up ensures greater reliability, faster flight turnaround times, and even the potential to lower commercial flight costs, boosting both performance and sustainability in aviation.
- Five key issues with modern aviation braking systems:
Excessive Heat Build-Up
Braking systems in aircraft generate significant heat during landing and taxiing, which can lead to overheating, reduced brake efficiency, and increased wear on components, affecting safety and performance.
Environmental Impact
Traditional aviation brakes contribute to harmful emissions, including brake wear particles, which have been identified as a source of pollution, contributing to environmental damage.
Brake Wear & Maintenance Costs
Frequent use and heat exposure accelerate wear on braking components, leading to high maintenance costs, frequent replacements, and increased downtime for aircraft.
Longer Flight Turnaround Times
The cooling period required after intense braking, particularly during high-pressure situations like rejected take-offs, leads to longer turnaround times, impacting flight schedules and operational efficiency.
Limited Energy Efficiency
Current braking systems often do not maximise energy efficiency, resulting in unnecessary energy consumption, higher fuel usage, and increased operational costs for airlines.
