Design and Development of Contactless Breaking System for Automobiles

Mayur Makwana, Jatin Patel, Parth Pandya

Abstract


The contact less brake is a new and revolutionary concept. Maintenance free brake system is a modern technology braking system used in light motor and heavy motor vehicles like car, jeep, truck, buses etc. This system is a combination of electro-mechanical concepts. The frequency of accidents is nowadays increasing due to inefficient braking system. In this research work, with a view to enhance to the braking system in automobile, a prototype model is fabricated and analysed.


Keywords


Brakes, eddy currents, retardation
