Abstracts: This project relates to Magnetic braking system. So first let us know about what is “ Brake"?. A Brake is a device by means of which artificial frictional resistance is applied to a moving machine member in order to retard or stop the motion of a machine. The project is about braking system which is done by magnetic force . It works on the principle of Lenz law. Normally use of brake is highly responsible for heat generation which leads to Wear & Tear of brake assembly and shorter life of brake. By Magnetic force heat generation during braking system is negligible. By use of magnetic braking system one can increase the life of brake as well as effective braking is obtained and self-locking can be avoided .It also useful for damping lateral vibration control of rotating machinery.
