Abstract
An ideal brake lining, which provides uniform and stable friction under all the operating conditions without any fade. The significance of friction material in material handling and earth moving machinery, commonly used friction material earlier contained asbestos as the base material mainly because of its property to resist deformation under action of heat generated due to friction. This review focuses on analysis of the brake friction lining material and other materials for band brake application. The measurement of friction force and the calculation of the coefficient of friction, coefficient of friction COF are critical for many industrial applications, e.g. Brakes, valves, clutches, similarly power and motion control mechanisms. High friction during machine operation not only generates heating that might cause failure of a machine part, but also consume a large amount of energy. It is estimated that one-third to one-half of the world’s energy production is wasted through friction.
