Brake Pad Hot Press Molding Machine – Medium Type

Medium Type HCBR is built for medium disc brake pads, drum brake linings, passenger car pads, light-truck pads, truck pads and multi-cavity friction-material molds. The larger heated platen area, stable hydraulic holding pressure, enough daylight and stronger mold support help the factory control thickness, density and backing-plate bonding in daily production.

The 400-ton class is built around a heavy guided press frame, larger work opening, side control cabinet, pressure gauges and hydraulic system layout. This configuration helps the factory reduce uneven density, unstable bonding and thickness variation while giving operators more room for mold loading, demolding and daily maintenance.

Key machine advantages

  • Larger platen planning gives medium disc brake pads, drum brake linings, passenger cars, light trucks and trucks more working area for friction material density and back-plate bonding control.
  • Stronger guided press structure supports heavier molds, longer holding-pressure work and more consistent finished-pad thickness.
  • Hydraulic support and ejection help the operator handle larger molds and remove finished pads with less manual risk.
  • Control cabinet, gauges, safety light curtains and optional IoT monitoring available by project configuration make heat, pressure, holding time, machine status and operator protection easier to manage on a production floor.

Machine Functions and Molding Control

Medium HCBR selection starts with pad size, cavity count, mold weight and daily output. These inputs determine platen area, daylight and holding pressure capacity so medium disc pads, drum linings and commercial-vehicle friction parts retain enough mold and operating space.

Larger platen capacity

Medium Type is selected when the mold needs more heated platen area to control brake pad thickness, density and cavity-to-cavity consistency.

Heavy mold support

The guided press frame and hydraulic system are matched to mold weight, holding pressure and opening height so heavy molds can run with lower downtime risk.

Commercial vehicle production

Larger linings need controlled heat and pressure across the entire mold, keeping pressure and temperature consistent over the full friction material area.

Operator control and line monitoring

The medium type can be planned with PLC/touchscreen operation, pressure gauges, safety light curtains and optional IoT monitoring by project configuration. This gives the operator clearer control over platen temperature, holding pressure, ejection and machine status when producing medium disc brake pads or drum brake lining parts.

How to choose this brake pad press

Larger mold area

Choose Medium Type when the pad size or cavity count needs more heated platen area to avoid thickness variation and uneven density.

Heavier mold work

Mold weight, opening height and ejection force decide how comfortably operators can load, unload and maintain the machine in daily production.

Output target

Medium to high output requires controlled heat, pressure and holding time over repeated runs, so the control cabinet and hydraulic system matter.

Factory planning

Reserve mold handling, cleaning and safety space around the larger press from the beginning.

Prepare these details before inquiry

  • Medium disc brake pad, drum brake lining, passenger car, light truck or truck pad drawing, backing plate size and target thickness.
  • Mold size, mold weight, cavity count, opening height, stroke and ejection method.
  • Daily output target, operator arrangement, safety requirement and export document needs.

Machine service, imported components and export support

Han Chang supports machine selection, installation confirmation, operator guidance, online machine-status diagnosis and replacement-part coordination through service teams in Taiwan and Mainland China. Safety light curtains and optional IoT monitoring can be included according to the selected project configuration.

For suitable configurations, imported key components such as Mitsubishi PLC, Fuji Electric touch panel and Japanese-brand oil seals can be used to make control, troubleshooting and maintenance clearer.

Machine-status diagnosis

Service discussion focuses on the press itself: hydraulic pressure, platen heating temperature, holding pressure, ejection, PLC parameters, safety light curtains, optional IoT monitoring, sensors, valves, oil seals and machine alarms. This helps the customer check whether brake-pad thickness, backing-plate bonding, friction-material density or demolding stability is being affected by machine setting, mold condition, material curing or normal maintenance.

Imported key components

Mitsubishi PLC, Fuji Electric touch panel options and Japanese-brand oil seals give the customer clearer control, easier parameter management and a better replacement-part path.

Taiwan and Mainland China support

Service teams in Taiwan and Mainland China help customers discuss installation, operation, online machine checks and replacement parts after delivery.

Export project support

CE certification available for export projects. Han Chang can discuss CE document scope, machine configuration and service needs with export customers before shipment.
