Chamfering

Chamfering, also known as edge beveling, is an important process in the manufacturing of brake pads. The main function of chamfering is to improve brake performance and safety.

By chamfering the edges of brake pads, the contact area between the pad and the brake disc is increased. This allows for better friction and even pressure distribution on the brake disc, resulting in more effective braking. Additionally, chamfering reduces the risk of brake noise and vibrations that can occur during braking.

The manufacturing of the chamfer is typically done by grinding or punching the edges after shaping the brake pad material. Special tools are used to create the desired beveled shape. The exact angle and extent of the chamfer can vary depending on the specific requirements of the vehicle and braking system.

Overall, chamfering in brake pads helps optimize brake performance, reduce noise, and ensure safety during braking. It is an important step in the manufacturing of brake pads to achieve smooth and efficient braking behavior.

During the grinding process, so-called Chamfer are ground into the base. IAG has already delivered technology for the production
