Abstract:
A brake arrangement including hybrid brake actuators includes pneumatic and electric brake actuators, and is designed to overcome pneumatic failures by electrical brake actuators. The pneumatic can thus be lightened and less energy consuming. In particular, only one compressed air tank can be used for all the axles.
