Permanent Magnet Brakes Apply Controlled Stop
Like spring applied brakes, permanent magnet brakes are applied when power is lost. However, unlike spring applied brakes, permanent magnet brakes can be applied gradually by controlling the voltage/current. This can be very important if either people or delicate materials are involved.
