0:45 now if a device is not properly maintained, and say rust/dust builds up in the aluminum rotor arms such that they are not able to expand when they spin, will the device break a fall? Or will the climber break their legs? ?just curious =) this is by far the most reliable tech today on climbing auto belays, clearly superior than the old hydraulic or mechanical break tech, but doesn't mean it will never fail or has any flaws.
In my opinion the braking will be less effective. The more weight there is, the more the aluminium rotor arms "expand". So I think if they don't expand as much as they should, they don't brake enough ! However it still brakes so I imagine it stays safe ? That's my opinion. I'm studying this system so I might have made mistakes ! And English is not my first languages so if there are any mistakes please tell me. Have a good day
@@selyam2596 Thanks, your English is fine =) That's what I'd like to think too! Ie, some constant static breaking power and more power the more the rods go into the magnetic field. However the video says something like "the centrifugal force expands the aluminum rods into the stationary magnetic field"... so one can understand that *when fully retracted, they are actually outside of the field* and then cannot break. Makes sense? As far as I could tell the expansion of the rods is one flaw that could cause some level of malfunctioning, so I'd would like to know more as to how much the device breaking power really relies on this to work properly.
@@aviren340 See the video at 0:48, the grey rods are "expanding", or moving outwards, increasing their radii, and hence getting more into the magnetic field.
@@nix324 I did some surface level research and apparently it's because eddy current braking is much less effective when stopping something with a slower rotation speed

Im not really sure what this video was intended to be for, but Im using this for my physics assignment.
same! haha
Lmao SAME it's better explanation than the teacher's class
Did you not pay attention? It’s for zip lines…
BRO. me to!
I would be extremely interested to see this configuration used in an automotive context.

What do you mean by expand ?

@@haphaeu Glad to hear that ! Yes ! Maybe they are totally outside of the field. I would like to know too.
I would like to see technology applied to automobiles?
trains use eddy current braking but no cars use it afaik, i wonder why
@@nix324 I did some surface level research and apparently it's because eddy current braking is much less effective when stopping something with a slower rotation speed
@@nix324 As i know the Brakes are sometimes used in Busses and in bigger trucks
Do you guys happen to know about the name of this machine system? I'm looking for some information about the system that the radii is expanded!
What expand are the rotor arms and they can do that because of strings. I hope that helps but I didn't really understand your question.
Trublue Auto Belay
theyre just weights... centrifugal force... probably a spring to make them retract...
Here for the physics
