Poor braking after replacing brake pads is because the surface of the new brake pads is relatively flat, while the contact surface on the brake disc is very uneven, resulting in a very small contact area between them. Additionally, when braking, the deformation of the brake pads is significant, leading to poor braking performance. Automotive brake pads, also known as automotive brake linings, refer to the friction materials fixed on the rotating brake drum or brake disc of the wheel. The friction linings and friction blocks within them bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby achieving the purpose of vehicle deceleration. Automotive brake pads consist of a steel plate, an adhesive heat insulation layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using an SMT4 oven temperature tracker to ensure the temperature distribution during the coating process meets quality standards.
