Abstract
An idea to improve friction between two steel plates by directing the magnetic flux through steel plates are presented in this paper. For research, minimum inclination required for steel surfaces to start sliding and the magnitude of frictional force at the point of sliding was observed and compared with the nature of sliding while there is a flow of magnetic flux through the steel plates. From the research observation, an idea to increase friction using varying magnetic field and thereby providing interlocking of the steel plates was proposed and designed in the form of block diagram.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.mech.23.2.13839

Summary
The frictional force is known as the opposing force when a surface slides over another surface. The magnetic flux through steel plates is introduced by the method of magnetic latching, there coefficient of friction is considered as and magnetic permeability is considered as p. The magnet and the members are separated by a gap and the magnet must project its field across the gap to exert a force of attraction (Fig. 1). The magnet with attached flux plates is attracted to a wall made of soft magnetic material. The force of attraction between two magnetized surfaces can be explained using Gilbert Modeling [7]. Where A is the area of each surface in m2; H is their magnetizing field in A/m; the permeability of space 0 4 10 7 , H/m and B is the flux density in Tesla, at the area of contact between two surfaces
