Magnetic brakes have suffered from hysteresis, cogging, and low-power output for over 30 years. And they have lacked linearity, so users had to more than double Magnetic brakes have suffered from ...

Many web tensioning processes and other converting applications require smooth and adjustable torque while maintaining a clean and dust-free environment. Many web tensioning processes and other ...

PlacidIndustries' hollow shaft brakes mount easily. Magnetic particle brakes areideal for payout (unwind) tension control, load simulation (for testing motorsand actuators), and soft stops. Slip ...

From DIY levitation tricks to clever braking systems, these swirling paths of electrons keep finding new ways to surprise and inspire.

Magnetorheological (MR) brake technology exploits the rapid, reversible change in viscosity of MR fluids under an applied magnetic field to generate controllable braking force. This approach offers ...

Magnetic steering feedback “brake,” planetary ball-ramp rear steering, electric recirculating-ball front steering, and 5 million electric rear brakes. Steer-by-wire always requires two motors—a big ...

Rogue magnetic fields generated by electrons are thwarting efforts to boost the energies of laser-driven proton beams – according toMotoaki Nakatsutsumi at Osaka University in Japan and an ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen environmental ...

I recently had to delve into the brakes on a trailer and was quite surprised at how they work. With all of the advances in technology, it’s a wonder that this method still exists as the majority of ...
