AI Technical Summary
Traditional tool magazines lack braking mechanisms, resulting in a long waiting time before the tool reaches the designated position, and relying on precise motor control cannot effectively brake them.
A magnetic braking mechanism is adopted to brake the cutter disc on the reducer by means of attraction between opposite poles. The braking torque is generated by the change of magnetic field. The combination of the attraction between the opposite poles of solid metal parts and magnetic components enhances the braking efficiency.
It achieves rapid stopping of the cutter head, reduces tool removal waiting time, and is free of wear and noise, with a smooth and efficient braking process.
