Asynchronous motor brushes
Mersen offers a wide range of brush grades, of electrographite and metal graphite type, such as CG677, to cover all operating conditions of asynchronous motors with wound rotor.
Electrographitic grades are prepared from carbon powders and a specific binder; they are then subject to high temperature thermal treatments (>2500 °C) to transform the basic amorphous carbon into artificial graphite, and enhance the physical properties of the grades.
Metal graphite brushes grades are prepared according to 2 possible processes:
- from electrographite treated by metal impregnation (copper, silver), providing a high solidity and high load capacity,
- from a mix of powdered purified natural graphite and metal powders (copper, silver…), which are then pressed and baked to bring them to the required solidity and cohesion levels.
Mersen’s Research & Development Department continuously develops brush materials to improve the current carrying capacity and lifetime of the carbon brush and reduce slip ring maintenance.
The choice of the most suited grade depends on a large number of parameters linked to the asynchronous motor itself as well as its environment, such as: current (per brush), peripheral speed, enclosure, ventilation, etc. Mersen’s grade able to meet your requirements can thus be readily selected from our variety of materials. Please refer to Mersen’s Technical Guide "Carbon brushes for motors and generators"

Asynchronous motors carbon brushes
Mersen is capable of supplying you with carbon brushes of various designs, with a high quality of manufacturing, in particular the cable connection by tamping.
When required, we could adjust the drawing (grade, dimensions, cable, components…) to adapt the carbon brush specifically to your slip ring motor considering its application.
Operational properties can thus be optimized by enhancing the mechanical stability (shape, components, friction coefficient) and electrical performances (voltage drop at contact, load capacity), in particular to reduce the losses. The function of a good brush is further explained in our technical data sheet reference TDS‑01.
The Technical date sheet TDS-20 completes the latter by providing key elements to be taken into account when designing of slip ring systems. Mersen provides also technical information on various topics under the reference “TDS”, available through the Search Tool.

Carbon brushes for AC motors
Mersen est en mesure de vous fournir des balais de différents designs, avec une haute qualité de fabrication, notamment la connexion du câble par scellement.
Si nécessaire, nous pouvons ajuster la conception (nuance, dimensions, câble, composants...) afin d'adapter le balai spécifiquement à votre moteur AC pour son application.
Les propriétés opérationnelles peuvent ainsi être optimisées en améliorant la stabilité mécanique (forme, composants, coefficient de frottement) et les performances électriques (chute de tension au contact, charge admissible), en particulier pour réduire les pertes. La fonction d'un bon balai est expliquée plus en détail dans notre fiche technique référence TDS‑01.
La Fiche technique TDS-20 la complète en fournissant des éléments clés à prendre en compte lors du design des systèmes à bagues. Mersen fournit également des informations techniques sur divers sujets sous la référence "TDS", disponibles via l'outil de recherche.
- Specific designs
- High quality tamping
- Optimized cable dimensions
- Good mechanical stability
- Adapted range of current density, from 8 A/cm² to 30 A/cm²
- Wide speed range (15m to 35m/s)
Mersen, a reference supplier of electric motor manufacturers, also offers dedicated services of refurbishment, replacement of brushes and brush-holders, re-engineering, and trainings.
Slip ring motors have various applications in process industries and sectors of extraction (mining, oil & gas) and marine: grinders, crushers, conveyors, mixers, compressors, pumps, blowers, winches, elevators...
- Paper plants (pulping, winding)
- Cement plants (crushing, belts, ventilation...)
- Metallurgy (forming, winding, treatments...)
- Plastic industry (extruding, winding...)
- Mining (extraction, transportation, process)
- Ports & Marine (cranes, ships)
- Oil & Gas (extraction, transportation, treatment)
- Waterworks
