Electromagnetic braking system means it uses the magnetic and electronic power to apply brakes. principle of electromagnetism to achieve friction less braking, hence requires less maintenance and oiling. This tends to increase the life span and reliability of brakes since no friction leads to less wearing out of brakes. It is quite smaller in size compared to the traditional braking systems. The motivation behind the proposed use of these brakes in vehicles is that it is frictionless so less maintenance cost due to no friction and no oiling, a technological replacement for traditional braking systems. Also this braking system is guaranteed to apply brakes to the vehicle while traditional braking systems are prone to slipping. So this technology is a preferred replacement for traditional braking without friction or need of lubrication. A magnetic flux when passed in a direction perpendicular to the rotating direction of the wheel, eddy current flows in a direction opposite to the rotation of the wheel. This achieve electromagnetic braking system by creating an opposing force to the wheel rotation and in turn slows down the wheel.
