Tooling solutions for machining brake calipers

The brake pads are assembled in the brake caliper, and it is there that they are activated during vehicle braking action. Since they are a component connected to the safety of the vehicle, there are strong manufacturing and quality demands. Cost-efficient manufacturing is of great importance for these types of components.
Besides our extensive standard offer, Sandvik Coromant also has dedicated products and engineered solutions that fully support overcoming the challenges presented by manufacturing these components.
