Electromagnets may be divided into two classes: traction magnets, in which the pull is to be exerted over a distance and work is done by reducing the air gap; and lifting or holding magnets, in which the material is initially placed in contact with the magnet. For examples of the first type see Brake; Clutch; Relay; Solenoid, electric. 1, record 1, English, - traction%20magnet

[Dans] le cas des électro-aimants de manœuvre [...] l'armature constitue l'élément moteur d’une machine simple ou complexe(solénoïde, relais, embrayage ou frein électromagnétique). Ce type d’électro-aimant fournit de l'énergie mécanique pendant un temps appréciable par rapport à son temps total de fonctionnement et c'est dans ce sens qu'il peut être qualifié de moteur. 1, record 1, French, - %C3%A9lectro%2Daimant%20de%20man%26oelig%3Buvre
