DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF INTELLIGENT ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKING

SYSTEM FOR FOUR WHEELERS WITH ABS

ABSTRACT:

The aim of the project is to design and fabrication of an anti-lock braking system. ABS is
a safety system which prevents the wheels on a motor vehicle from locking up (or ceasing to
rotate) while braking. ABS means a portion of service brake System that automatically controls
the Degree of rotational wheel slip during Braking. An Electromagnetic Braking system uses
Magnetic force to engage the brake, but the power required for braking is transmitted manually.
The disc is connected to a shaft and the electromagnet is mounted on the frame .When electricity
is applied to the coil a magnetic field is developed across the armature because of the current
flowing across the coil and causes armature to get attracted towards the coil. As a result it
develops a torque and eventually the vehicle comes to rest. In this project the advantage of using
the electromagnetic braking system in automobile is studied. These brakes can be incorporated in
heavy vehicles as an auxiliary brake. The electromagnetic brakes can be used in commercial
vehicles by controlling the current supplied to produce the magnetic flux. Making some
improvements in the brakes it can be used in automobiles in future.

Additional to this brake an ultrasonic sensor will be fixed for auto braking process whenever
person or object identified at particular distance auto brake was adopted with the help of micro
controller.

APPLICATIONS

1. This project can be used in vehicles for safe ride.

2. It can be used for Four wheelers, three wheelers and also in two wheelers for better braking systems.

ADVANTAGES:

1. This project is very cheap and user friendly.

2. It requires very less power for its operation. Since the entire control is done by the microcontroller, it
works with more accuracy.

3. It will stop vehicle within a smallest distance.

4. It will act instantaneously in case of emergency braking

MATERIALS REQUIRED:

1. Four Disk Plates with Center axel

2. 1 HP AC Motor
3. 1.5 Inches Square Tube 30 Feet
4. Micro Controller Kit
5. Electromagnets
