Abstract

An Experimental wear measurement Test Rig was designed and constructed using readily available materials. The test set up was designed to test automobile disc brake pad wear and effectiveness at various pressure speed inertia load . To determine its functionality a wear test was conducted on a commercial brake pad at various pressure speeds and inertia load. This prototype test rig can be used in testing the brake pad of different vehicle such as Maruti, Tata, Nissan, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Volvo, Peugeot, and other brands of interest. With little modification, this product can be commercialized.
