ESA magnetic brake

The “Magnetic Brake 2” project is developing a high-resolution, contactless brake for space actuators that enables high-precision positioning of antennas, thrusters and solar panels.
Contactless operation prevents the risk of cold welding or clogging and thus increases the reliability of critical space components.
