Bridgeport Series II Interact 4 Spindle Brake
Hey all,
Just wondering if anyone here knew the purpose of the big electromagnetic brake which is bolted to the top of the spindle motor on the series II interact 4.
Is it just used to bring the spindle to a stop faster or does it have another, less apparant purpose?
More to the point, is it an essential component or if I removed it would my mill continue to function ok without ?
