How it WorksHow it Works
Friction develops heat which absorbs kinetic energy of the
car

PURPOSE OF BRAKING PURPOSE OF BRAKING SYSTEMSYSTEM
Stop the vehicle by converting the kinetic energy of the vehicle to heat energy.
Heat energy is created in the brakes by friction.Friction is created between a moving and a non-
moving surface at each wheel to generate the heat.Disc and drum brakes are the most common type of
braking systems used.

Factors Effecting Braking*Factors Effecting Braking*
Number of wheels braking. Weight of vehicle. Type of friction material. Surface area of friction
material. Size or discs or drums
Tire traction. Road surface. Load transfer. Incline or decline of road.
(gravity) Engine braking. Pressure applied

Types of Braking SystemsTypes of Braking Systems
Service brakes. It’s the primary braking system using a the pedal connected to a hydraulic system causing it to operate.
Parking brakes. It’s mechanically applied by a lever or pedal.

DISC BRAKESDISC BRAKES
Disc brakes use a rotating disc with two stationary friction pads that are pressed against to rotor by the caliper to create friction and heat.
Disc brakes are more effective at dissipating heat.

Master CylinderMaster Cylinder The master cylinder displaces brake fluid under
pressure to brake system. When brake pedal is depressed, push rod moves the
primary piston forward in the cylinder. Hydraulic pressure created and the force of the
primary piston spring moves the secondary piston forward.
forward movement of the pistons causes primary cups to cover bypass holes, hydraulic pressure builds up and is transmitted to the wheel cylinders.

pedal retracts, the pistons allow fluid from the reservoir to fill the chamber
Special sensors within the master cylinder used to monitor level of fluid in reservoir, and alerts driver if pressure imbalance develops.
standard dual master cylinder gives front and rear brakes separate hydraulic systems.

the other system will still operate, making it possible to. . .

BRAKE INSPECTIONBRAKE INSPECTION
Remove all four wheels of the vehicle.On drum brakes remove the drums and
wash brake dust with proper cleaner.Check brake pads and brakes shoes for
wear.Check drums and rotors for wear and
damage.
