Nowadays the automotive industry in Thailand has been widely growing. Brake pad is one of the automotive products that play a vital role in automotive industry because it is the most critical seeurity part. Consequently testing products for quality are extremely requested. However the precise equipment and function tests which show the real effects are not available enough and cost a lot. Therefore they cannot response to the deman in the automotive industry development. In this study the frictional test jigs for friction measurement JIS K7125 [5] and the clutch facings for automobiles JIS D4311 [6]. A study of the frictional test emphasizes on the static friction (μs) and kinetic friction (μk) in different condition. There are 3 specimens of brake pad supposted by the industry company. These specimens were tested and the results from the pin-ondisk and those from the friction testing were compared. The results revealed the correspondence of the two-sided results but the pin-on-disk’s friction coefficient is more than the friction testing’s friction coefficient by 19.56%. Moreover the coefficient of friction varies according to the temperature Besides the static friction (μs) is likely more than kinetic friction (μk) and tends to differ considerably under high pressure condition.

A disc brake is one of important auto parts for motorbike cycle industry which effected directly to life safety. As the result this project aims to test the performance of the disc brake in order to study the physical disc brake that effects to braking distance and to be an alternative for testing the brake disc. The braking performance tester was designed and created in the single dynamometer which was not over 10 Hp and the 17of inertia .70 kg. m. Referring to testing state of JASO T204:2001 standard this tester focused on testing the 3 different types of disc brake i.e. normal type grooving type and perforated type. The tested temperature was at normal state of the brake disc temperature (60° C - 80° C) and at high state (more than 100° C). The braking force from 9.81 N to 34.33 N at master cylinder was tested. moments was not over 92 The result revealed that at normal temperature the braking performance of the three disc brakes (normal type grooving type and perforated type) was at 17.76 21.80 and 19.00 per 1 mrespectively. However the brake performance at high temperature was at 14.41 18.06 and 18.93 per 1 m. This meant that the most efficient disc brake at normal temperature was grooving type of disc brake which was 22.74% different from normal type of disc brake. Nevertheless; the perforated type of disc brake was the most performance disc brake at high temperature which was different from normal type of disc brake at 25.32% 2 of contact surface areas 2 of contact surface areas respectively2m/s2m/s

Nowadays the automotive parts industry greatly grows up in Thailand. Brake disc is one of products that play a role in safety area. As a result the various designs such as front and back-vented brake discs are occurred to improve the performance of usability. Consequently this study aims to develop the ability of braking dynamometer from 9.7 kg-m.1 kg-m. Moreover the influence of the front and the back-vented brake disc effecting on braking distance was investigated by single dynamometer referenced JASO C406 for testing condition. Therefore both of discs were operated under 100 200 and 300 °C of braking temperature and 2 4 and 6 MPa of line hydraulic pressure of braking. 2 to 1272 of moment of inertial From experimental works the test results reflected that the back-vented brake disc created braking distance shorter than front-vented brake disc ostensibly. Besides there are also diversity of factors as temperature pressure and initial speed of braking. Especially the higher temperature caused an increase of deceleration and a decrease of braking distance. Moreover the higher pressure produced a deduction of braking distance and a rise of deceleration. Finally the initial speed of braking was directly various the braking distances in same condition.

Nowadays one of the automotive engineering is conductivity of brake pads playing a role in friction coefficient which means safety of customer. Thus thermal properties have been improved using composited materials. This project aims to study the conductivity behavior of 3 different brake pads which are supported by the company Compact International (1994) Ltd. For experimental works temperature based on brake condition was simulated from 200 to 400°C and cooled down from 400 to 200°C at 1 5 and 8 MPa of pressure respectively. By standard JIS D4413 testing condition of pressure was referred. The non-linear of conductivity value are calculated from the temperature under steady state condition. As a result of testing there are several of parameters effecting on the non-linear conductivity value. The brake pad that is a mix of high-fiber occurs the fluctuation of thermal conductivity. At the same time lubricant in the brake pad cause the stability of conductivity value in different temperature range at the same pressure. On the other hand the brake pad mixed hi-copper inspires the narrow range of conductivity value in different pressures at the same temperature. Moreover the conductivity value as a mention is inversely proportion with the coefficient of kinetic friction.

A disc brake is one of important auto parts for automotive industry which effected directly to life safety. The wear of brake rotor war affected to the brake efficiency. Lf the wear of rotor was discovered while operating the risk of accident shall be reduced. Therefore a study of disc wear affected to brake distance was the one of alternative for the brake efficiency testing. From this reason the aim of project is to test brake efficiency from the wear of brake rotor with the experiment conditions from JASO C 406 [1]. By the test conditions are focused on 3 cases of the wear: rotor little roughness rotor and abundant roughness rotor. The conditions of experiment consist of 100 200 และ 3000C on the rotor surface operating pressure 2 4 and 6 MPa initial speed before brake applied 50 and 80 km/hr. Based on the result of experiment was revealed that the braking distance deceleration and the brake ability with deceleration per unit of area. The result of experiment shown that the ordinary rotor at 6 MPa 300 0C and 50 km/hr. is given to the shortest of braking distance 69.7 m. Although the average of deceleration and the brake ability is take up on little roughness rotor. In case of the longest braking distance was occurred on the abundant roughness rotor. However from this study is discovered to the high temperature and the high pressure is significant to the braking distance shortened.
