LiqFric - The Future of Friction - Time for a Model Change

Todays friction materials for automotive brakes are high volume, high temperature, high pressure produced industrial goods. LiqFric has created a new way to produce automotive brake pads at temperature not exceeding approx. 100°C and showing high performance friction capabilities (µ = 0,45) while reducing the ultra fine particle emission by approx.

Vehicle as a Sensor to Map the Quality of the Roads

The problem to be addressed originates from the inherent deficiencies in traditional pavement monitoring methods for road networks. These methods primarily rely on periodic visual inspections conducted by human personnel, which present significant limitations. Firstly, manual inspection is costly and requires considerable human and financial resources, limiting its applicability to large road networks like that of Mexico City. Additionally,

No Oil Pressure Crankshaft

This idea is developed to reduce internal combustion engines' mechanical friction loss by distinctive crankshaft oil hole layout. In order to ensure adequate oil transport, from main bearing shell oil groove to connecting rod bearing via oil holes made inside crankshaft, some certain oil pressure is required to cope with centrifugal force acting on oil inside crankshaft.
