Bosch Carbon Brushes

in electric motors and generators. They are an integral part of the motor’s mechanism, serving as conductive elements that deliver electrical current to the motor’s spinning armature or rotor. Here’s how they work and why they’re important:

1. Composition: Carbon brushes are typically made from a combination of carbon and other materials like graphite, copper, or metal powders. This composition provides them with good electrical conductivity, low friction, and resistance to wear.
2. Function: Carbon brushes make electrical contact with the rotating part of the motor, such as the armature or rotor. They transfer electrical current from the stationary part of the motor (the stator) to the rotating part, enabling the motor to function. This electrical connection allows the motor to generate electromagnetic fields necessary for producing mechanical motion.
3. Wear and Replacement: Due to their role in transferring electrical current and the friction generated during operation, carbon brushes gradually wear down over time. Regular use and
