Q&A Forum
Hi,
as many others I also want build my own dyno.
My first step was design CAD data and meanwhile looking for used eddy current brakes. After months of calling and seeking I finally found two almost identical eddy brakes.
Unfortunately when I took them at home I found out that the brakes don't have internal bearings. It was taken from transmission of a bus where the transmission shaft was connected with rotors of the brake but stator of the brake was joined only with a transmission casing.
So should I try to find a way how to use them or it's better to throw them out and try to find something better?
Hi,
I don't see how you can use those brakes without some major work on them 😥.
Probably better to try to sell them and buy something else. Maybe someone else here has an idea?
