Carbon Brush Manufacture
Carbon brushes are used to transfer electrical current from a moving (usually rotating) to a stationary point within an electric circuit.
Important electrical components in motors and generators, Carbon brushes are made of carbon or graphite.
Carbon brushes have been more recently used to harness renewable electricity sources from both wind powered and hydro powered generators.

How to calculate the Carbon Brush volume:
Volume of a brush is the product of its length, width, and height for example – 1.5cm × 1.7cm × 2cm = 5.1 cubic cm or 5.1cm3
A=Length – B=Width – C=Height
A x B x C = volume in cubic cm.
