Welcome to the collection of materials dedicated to the automotive brake system - a key element of road safety. This complex mechanism ensures the stopping of the vehicle and control over its movement, playing a vital role in preventing accidents and providing comfort during trips.

Automotive brake systems come in two main types: disc and drum. Disc brakes consist of metal discs on which brake pads apply pressure, creating friction to slow down the rotation of the wheels. Drum brakes, on the other hand, use metal drums and brake shoes that are spread on the inner side of the drum to slow down the vehicle. Both types have their unique features and advantages, providing reliability and efficiency under various operating conditions.

Modern brake systems also include various electronic systems, such as ABS (anti-lock braking system), which prevents wheel locking during abrupt braking. This allows the driver to maintain control of the vehicle and significantly enhances safety in emergency situations. Other innovative technologies, such as EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution) and brake management systems, continue to evolve, making vehicles increasingly safe and manageable.

The context for brake systems includes roads, urban and rural routes, highways, and narrow streets, where braking efficiency can depend on various factors: weather conditions, road surface conditions, and the weight of the vehicle. Brake systems are adapted to operate in various climatic conditions — whether it's heat, cold, or rain — and ensure stable performance in any circumstances.

In this collection, you will find images and descriptions of various components, functional features, and modern solutions in the field of brake systems. These materials will be useful both for professionals in the automotive industry and for those who are simply interested in the structure and functions of vehicles. Discover a world where every detail matters and learn how automotive brake systems enhance our interaction with the road.
