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

The casting speed during thin slab casting is ... faster than that during conventional casting, and, therefore, the mould level fluctuation could be problematic. This fluctuation arose from the unbalanced feed of the liquid steel to the mould and the local disturbance of the flow pattern in the mould. Electromagnetic brake ruler (EMBR) has been found effective in stabilizing the fluctuation and, thereby, in reducing the breakout and the transverse crack formation. 1, record 3, English, - electromagnetic%20brake%20ruler
