Friction Materials Industry

Scope and process

Our integrated engineering department collaborates directly with friction materials industry procurement and engineering teams: (1) 2D/3D CAD drawing review and material selection; (2) In-house mould and fixture toolroom fabrication; (3) Multi-axis CNC machining and high-tonnage hydraulic preforming; and (4) 100% batch metrology verification with full Material Test Reports (MTR). For our complete range of capabilities, explore our OEM & ODM custom manufacturing solutions (/custom-manufacturing).

Materials we work with

Components for friction materials industry applications are produced from premium virgin and filled polymers (15–25% glass-filled, 25–33% carbon-filled, 40–60% bronze-filled, MoS2, PEEK, Delrin POM-C, UHMWPE, and technical ceramics). Raw resins are strictly tested for density (ASTM D792) and tensile strength (ASTM D4894) with batch traceability maintained for all production runs.

Tooling support

Tooling is multi-cavity and heated, built to hold cavity temperature evenly so cure is uniform across every position.

Choosing the right option

To request an OEM/ODM proposal for friction materials industry parts or machinery, submit 2D PDF technical drawings or 3D STEP models, material requirements, annual batch quantities, and operating pressure/temperature parameters. Our engineering department provides comprehensive technical and commercial proposals within 24 hours.

Quality checks and inspection

Inspection covers density and thickness across the cavity set, since a cold cavity yields an under-cured part that fails on test. Dimensions are verified on CMM against the drawing and sintered density checked per ASTM D792; a mill test certificate accompanies each despatch.

Commissioning and handover

For machinery deliveries (Automotive Brake Pad Compression Presses, Thermoset & Friction Material Presses), HEMSUN provides complete factory acceptance testing (FAT) at Dahegam prior to shipment, followed by on-site foundation anchoring, electrical cabling, hydraulic oil charging, and operator training by factory service engineers.

Export packing and lead time

Machinery and tooling ship with the cure profile and cavity layout documented for the customer’s process engineers. HEMSUN is a DGFT IEC registered exporter (Government of India); commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin accompany international despatch.

Maintenance and spare parts

Maintenance focuses on heater and thermocouple integrity, as drift on one zone shows up as scrap from that cavity only.
