One of the major disadvantages of this system is that the braking is not instantaneous and there is a time delay response due to pressure build! up. Wear anc tear is: also a big issue in hydraulic brakes. and hence it requires frequent time: to time maintenance. ‘Same probiems are experienced by other friction brakes. Fi To overcome these problems fo some extent, invention of Eddy current Brakes am ye role. The Eddy Current Brake is a contactless braking system{in it)a conducting disc is placed In, between an electromagnetic core. On application of brake, Eddy Current is developed in the braldet, conducting disqacting in direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the disc (Lorentz force) resulting in braking action. Unlike hydraulic brakes it is highly Eificient in High-speed scenarios. One of the major drawbacks of this system is that it has litle to no use in low speeds as the orent2 force produced i insufficient for efficient braking and hence this brake is usually coupled wih friction brakes or used as a retarder. US patent US628663781 shaws an Eddy wstyer : Cun j a Another variation of Electromagnetic Brake uses the basic property of magnetism ie., Aaraction. It consists of a ferromagnetic brake disc and an electromagnet, when the brake is @pplied the electromagnet gets activated and itis attracted toward the ferromagnetic disc. The faction material attached to the electromagnet is rubbed against the surface of disc which converts kinetic energy of disc to heat due to fricfion*But one of the of this system 's the heat produced is extremely high, wear and tear is also high.
