Linked Cleaning and mass finishing solution for brake components Continuous processing of parts that must be glued together

摘要

LUMAG Sp.z o.o.,founded by Mr.Marek Zak in 1988,is specialized in the production of brake pads for drum and disk brakes for commercial vehicles.For the latter the company,located in Budzyn,Poland,developed its own manufacturing technology resulting in significant quality improvements.In addition,LUMAG develops,produces and sells brake pads for passenger cars and motorbikes under the trade name Breck.As a result of changing the production method for the brake pad carrier plates,from casting to stamping,LUMAG decided to install a new in-house manufacturing line for these products.This included a solution for de-oiling,deburring and surface roughening of the stamped carrier plates with lengths of 210-250 mm and widths between 90-110 mm.It should be noted that the components have a slit or drilled hole for placing a sensor,which monitors the wear of the brake pad.These steps were intended to ensure that the delicate stampings provide optimum adhesion characteristics for the following bonding of the brake pads.Another requirement presented by the customer was to directly link the finishing equipment with the punch press,maintain extremely gentle processing and complete automation of the cleaning(de-oiling)and mass finishing stages in continuous feed operation.LUMAG decided to partner with Rosier for this important project,because Rosier not only enjoys an excellent reputation in the industry,but was also able to supply the equipment for both processes including the finishing media and compounds from one single source.
