With the development of society, people’s awareness of environmental protection has greatly increased. The concept of electric gardens is gradually popularized. Electric lawnmowers quietly replacing traditional fuel-powered lawnmowers.

An electromagnetic brake is a common component found in electric-powered lawn and garden equipment, like lawnmowers. The brake typically consists of a magnet body, coil, spring, armature, and friction plate.

When the operator releases the trigger or switch that controls the electric motor of the electric lawn mower, the current to the motor is cut off, and the mower is stopped. And the current to brake is cut off. The spring press the armature to the friction plate to hold the motor at a stop state, thus stopping the movement of the mower.

When the operator pushes the trigger or switch that controls the electric motor of the electric lawn mower, the current to the motor is powered on, and the mower is going to move. And the current to brake will be powered on earlier. The stator attracts the armature to release the friction plate, thus the brake is released and the mower can move.

This provides a critical safety feature by ensuring that the mower won’t move even if the mower is on a slope. Electromagnetic brakes are preferred for this application because they are reliable, have a long service life, and are relatively maintenance-free. More and more electric equipment adopts the electromagnetic brake, such as electric forklifts, electric cleaning vehicles, electric sightseeing cars, electric high-altitude platform vehicles, Electric hunting vehicles, electric golf carts, etc.
