We’re suckers for videos that explain dry-as-dust science in visually dynamic ways. General Electric’s “GE Show” bats one out of the park by explaining hybrid dynamic braking — a system that ...

GE has teamed up with the Barbarian Group on a beautiful video that illustrates the science of hybrid dynamic braking with falling tomatoes, Christmas ornaments, watermelons, marbles, and more. GE has ...

Motors should not coast more than a few shaft revolutions after being deenergized. Critical applications use electromechanical clutch and brake devices to stop loads when motor power is removed.

The automotive industry continues to be a hotbed of innovation, with activity driven by road safety, autonomous braking systems and advancement in sensors, and growing importance of technologies such ...

Hydraulic retarders play a critical role in modern vehicle braking systems by converting kinetic energy into thermal energy through the fluid dynamic interactions within the retarder system. Their ...

Providing thermal transfers in load dump, capacitor discharge applications, the WDBR Series dynamic braking resistor allow motion-control designers to replace bulky wire-wound devices with a ...

The impulse to be sustainable — driven by the incessant pressure to lower our emissions — often manifests as lowering consumption and increasing reuse alongside reforms like tweaking consumer ...

This article was published 31/10/2002 (7724 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current. WITH almost every introduction of a new vehicle in the last couple years, the words “dynamic rear ...

The complete line of CDBR-D dynamic brakes work with braking resistors to dissipate excess energy produced by motors controlled by the company’s Impulse variable-frequency drives. Removing this energy ...
