The FanBrake project focuses on developing a high heat dissipating brake system for heavy goods vehicles to enhance safety. By improving heat management, the project aims to reduce brake fade, thereby increasing the effectiveness and reliability of braking systems in HGVs.
Europe’s heavy goods vehicle market is a major contributor to the economy with a total production of 616,000 vehicles at amarket value of €61 billion and 241,000 new registrations per year (2013).
Hence, it is expected that safety of the people,goods and vehicles involved is critical.
