Executive Summary• Objective: Design an electromagnetic
braking system– Replacing the conventional braking system– Less cost with greater performance– No need for maintenance and/or replacement
• Research: Other types of electromagnetic braking system
– Electromagnetic braking system with brake pads– Eddy-current braking system

Product Requirements• Overall
– Power supply to power the system– Hub and spindle assembly to simulate the actual
spinning of the rotor– Custom made rotor with metal arranged for the
most effective result– Brake pedal to simulate the real environment– Three electromagnets to generate braking force
ELET 4308 Team 4 Slide 3 of 13
Product Requirements (cont’d)• Hardware and Software
– 8051 microcontroller• Reading the braking level from pedal• Varying the braking force through duty cycle
– Custom built circuit board• Regulating input voltage• Powering up the 8051 µC• Amplifying the output voltage to electromagnets
ELET 4308 Team 4 Slide 4 of 13
Design Alternatives• Permanent magnets mounted on the wheel
– Cleaning issue– Magnet arrangement issue– Electromagnetic field around other mechanical
components issue• Metallic material region all around the wheel
– Electromagnetic field dispersion issue– Not enough braking force

Conclusions• Project was completed on schedule and
within budget thanks to donations• Supplier issues caused the purchase of
weaker magnets than intended for design• Good results with current design, a larger
budget would improve performance• The project proves the theory and shows the
potential for a full functional system
