Rotating electric machine tests are essential to determine the actual performance, power factor, machine torque, heating regime and its dynamic behavior. Belt mechanical dynamometers are usually used to perform this test, ...

This paper deals with the replacement of an electromechanical brake by a frequency inverter into a machine that makes the insertion of the "chip" on the card in an industry that manufactures smart cards (bank cards and SIM ...

CAD/CAE programs are a great help to the engineer, bringing economy and agility to the project, through the possibility of performing simulations, mitigating the need of prototypes. In the field of mechanical designs, the ...

Due to the current planet situation, caused by the aggression to the environment, the search to the sustainable development is constant. For this reason, new ideas and projects, that uses the electrical energy in a economic ...

This work describes the process of developing a test bench for an eddy current brake, which had a prototype previously built in another work. Although the prototype worked as expected, the need arose to measure the torque ...

This work aimed to study the factors required to adapt hydraulic press brakes which are obsolete according to the Brazilian's security norm. The principal focus is the pressing zone and the security devices that protect ...
