Chase Brake Pads Friction Materials Testing Machine

CHASE testing machine is a special test equipment used to measure the friction performance of friction materials. It can be used to select new friction material formulations before inertial bench tests or vehicle tests; it can also be used for quality control in the production process to ensure the quality consistency of different production batches of the same formula.

Our CHASE Testing Machine is an invaluable asset in the selection of new friction material formulations. Before subjecting materials to more complex and costly inertial bench tests or vehicle tests, it allows for efficient pre – screening. This not only saves time and resources but also ensures that only the most promising formulations progress to the next stage. Moreover, during the production process, it serves as a reliable quality control tool, guaranteeing the consistent quality of different production batches for the same formula.
