Nearly five years after Hurricane Sandy, the second-costliest hurricane in United States history, cities along the eastern seaboard were still working to discover – and repair – the damage inflicted on their infrastructure by the Category 3 storm. Magnetek, a Columbus McKinnon brand, had the opportunity to help mend some of the hurricane’s long-term damage by rebuilding industrial brakes used in the operation of a four-lane drawbridge that spans a busy navigation channel in New York City.
Milwaukee's one-of-a-kind ballpark features traditional architecture with a unique fan-shaped retractable roof. Since the roof moves to provide protection from the elements, it required design changes to improve performance. Nitrided Magnetek brand steel brakes included as part of new drive trains were able to provide protection and consistent performance.
