An Industrial Carbon Brush is a component used to conduct electrical current between the stationary and rotating parts of a motor. In a generator or motor, the commutator rotates on a shaft and the fixed Industrial Carbon Brush rides on it to permit the flow of electricity and complete a circuit.
Brushes were made of wire and looked like standard wire brushes. However, the wire brushes tended to wear away the commutator and suffered other run-time issues. The introduction of graphite provided brushes that allowed a more uniform shift of current between commutator segments.
Graphite Industrial Carbon Brush also wear, sparing the commutator. Moreover, the inclusion of special additives in the graphite can help lubricate the connection and the graphite is generally tailored to suit specific operational needs.
Carbon graphite brushes for electrical motors are among the oldest carbon brush types. They are made of high strength material, but are generally limited to lower current densities on older, slower speed machines. High friction with this type of material makes it unsuitable for present day use on commutators.
The Global Industrial Carbon Brush market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Schmidt hammer Industrial carbon brushes still have an extensive field of application on big and medium commutator machines with high electrical, thermique and mechanical duties.
The range includes commutator equipment, slip ring rotors, and other diversest current transmission systems. The base is a wide product assortment of carbon grades of variable compositions. Thus different specific resistances, specific densities, hardness- and load conditions can be realized.
All these parameters obtained, allow an adaption of carbon brush grade to the needs of the motor-manufacturers and designers. Diversified application and field of operation determine the dimensions and shapes of schmidt hammer industrial carbon brushes.
