Automotive Power Brake Systems Australia

The Automotive Power brake system Australia is one of the car's main systems, and it has a decisive influence on road safety. The braking system is the set of mechanisms that enable the vehicle to slow down and stop.

In modern cars, the operation of the braking system is a bit more complicated due to the use of active safety systems. An example is the basic ABS which prevents the wheels from locking when braking. It works based on rotational speed sensors mounted at each wheel hub. When the controller detects slippage during braking (one wheel stops spinning),it modulates the flow of brake fluid to the wheel (so-called pulse braking).

Additionally, each car has an emergency handbrake that works without the use of brake fluid. It uses a cable mechanism and additional rear disc drums, or another solution depending on the type of car.

How is a typical brake system built? What parts are included in it?

• Master cylinder - when you press the brake pedal, it pumps brake fluid to the brake callipers.
• Brake fluid reservoir.
• Brake system vacuum pump - increases the brake fluid pressure. Thanks to it, you do not need to press the brake pedal with all your might to achieve high braking performance.
• Brake callipers - strong elements, usually made of cast iron, permanently fixed in the steering knuckles. Their task is to keep the brake pads in the right position and to ensure proper operation of the brake pistons.
• Brake discs - metal discs, cast iron or cast steel, attached to the wheel hubs and rotating with them.
• Brake pads - elements are consisting of a metal base, a soundproofing cap and friction linings. They are mounted in the brake callipers.
• Rigid brake lines - mounted under the car, lead from the pump to the ends of the body.
• Flexible brake hoses - Connect the brake callipers to the rigid brake hoses. Their use is necessary because the wheels move while driving due to twisting or suspension work.
• Brake fluid.
