Brake system design

 

•In the integration of new brakes, the lay-out definition and optimization is important Final Report.

•Each component will be modified and adapted to the individual vehicle (examples: boundary conditions for calipers, Load Sensing Valve, parking brake, piping and ABS

lay-out…)
