Abstract
An emergency brake system for abrupt braking of a revolving shaft of a machine tool includes at least one brake drum and at least one brake shoe that are brought into engagement with one another in order to brake the shaft. The braking engagement between the brake drum and brake shoe occurs under the influence of a centrifugal force resulting from rotation of a shaft, the brake system being self-reinforcing, in particular self-locking.
