brakes
Brakes are fundamental safety components in vehicles, serving as the primary mechanism for deceleration and stopping. Modern brake systems combine advanced hydraulic technology with electronic controls to deliver optimal performance and reliability. The system typically consists of disc brakes or drum brakes, working in conjunction with a master cylinder and brake lines to convert mechanical force into stopping power. When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure is distributed through the brake lines to the wheel assemblies, where brake pads or shoes create friction against rotating components to slow or stop the vehicle. Contemporary brake systems often incorporate features like Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) to enhance safety and control. These systems work together to prevent wheel lockup during emergency braking, maintain vehicle stability, and provide consistent stopping power across various driving conditions. Brakes are engineered to withstand high temperatures and pressures while delivering reliable performance throughout their service life. Regular maintenance, including pad replacement and fluid checks, ensures optimal brake system operation and safety.
