Brake pads are one of parts widely used in automotive industry. The tribological behavior determination of brake pads under real environmental conditions is an important and critical situation.
In this study, the friction behavior of non-asbestos brake pad samples reinforced with natural dusts has been investigated according to The Brake Lining Quality Control Test Procedure (SAE J661). Most of the studies simulate or measure the variants by indirect methods and accept them as real results. For this purpose, a new computer controlled interactive brake pad friction tester was developed. This friction tester consists of three units: proportional pressure controlled hydraulics power pack, mechanical transmission system with electromagnetic clutch and brake and automation control with scada computer analysis interface, which are operated simultaneously. Compared to other friction testers, there is a very important innovation on the newly developed friction tester. This friction tester has both testing ability in very high precision and noise level measuring of the brake pad samples can be used in real conditions.
Finally, the cold and hot friction coefficients, wear behaviors and life intervals of brake pad samples can be determined by this friction tester. Thus, this is provided to develop a new type brake pad system which is cheaper and can be measured more accurate friction coefficients.
