However, as the brake linings and guide rails do not have a reciprocating movement (linear translational motion) on each other, this wear-test rig is not suitable for brake linings and guide rails in the elevator system.FindingsA sample test result that was conducted in this experimental set-up is presented to evaluate the tribological properties of the brake linings of the elevator system that are activated in emergencies. The pin is contacted by rotating a disc in this wear-test rig. The tribological properties of the brake lining material in the literature are generally identified using a pin-on-disc wear-tester. Therefore, friction coefficient and wear types occurring in the brake linings may be different.
Elevator brake linings are often used in conjunction with guided rails under dry and boundary lubrication conditions.
The friction and wear properties of these brake linings have great importance for both safety and comfort. Also, a sample test result that was conducted in this experimental set-up is presented to evaluate the tribological properties of the brake linings of the elevator system that are activated in emergencies.Design/methodology/approachThe brake linings are some of the most important security elements in elevators. PurposeThis paper aims to design and manufacture a wear-test rig performing reciprocating movement that is more relevant to the elevator brake system.
