Abstract

TMD Friction, one of the leading manufacturers of brake pads and linings, faces challenges in its production process. Precision at each stage is essential to ensure vehicle safety and the quality of the final product. However, a recurring problem is the variation in the apparent volume of the friction material, which leads to significant raw material losses and operational inefficiencies.
