The renewal of the brake shoes was the primary activity of the enterprise SINTER. This primary activity has been expanded and kept up to nowdays. Mainly, the renewal of the brakes shoes is significant for the maintenance of tractors and agricultural mechanisation, industrial machinery, deck cranes, lorries, lifts, construction mechanisation and for alike fields. Worn-out brake lining is exchanged with a new one or a new brake lining is manufactured in accordance with the worn-out one.The brake lining may be of different size and shape. As in many cases we meet with the brakes of older types of machinery and as there is no adequate documentation on maintenance, it is very important to obtain detailed description of the conditions under which the brake operates in order to select the most appropriate material for its renewal.
