"Disk Brake System": Deka Chandra Heryana Xii - TKR
• A. Theoretical Basis
• Brakes function to reduce speed (slow down) and stop the vehicle and provide the possibility to park the vehicle in a place that
decreases. The role of the brake is very important in the engine system, for example in car engines, motorcycles, washing machines,
and so on. In addition, the brakes also have weaknesses that the brakes often experience failure, this is due to lack of routine
maintenance and the cause of the occurrence of the brake failure is the brake pad runs out (wear), brake fluid runs out, and the leakage
occurs on the brake piston seal, brake master, or at brake hose, therefore brake maintenance must be highly considered.
• 1. Function of the Disc Brake System
• The brakes function to reduce vehicle speed or stop the vehicle through the friction mechanism between the brake components, with
the wheels rotating ie brake shoes with brake drum.
• 2. Disk Brake
• Most modern cars have implemented this one device. Usually such devices can be found on new vehicle wheels so that in every use
they are maximized and directed.
• Disc brakes are one of the best modern braking systems in cars and are ideal for any car, especially those that have used large CC
capacity engines. The working system of disc brakes is to clamp the discs normally
• mounted on the vehicle wheels through a caliper driven by a piston to push brake shoes (brake pads) to the disc.
• a. Excess disc brakes
• Disc brakes can be used from various temperatures, so almost all vehicles apply the disc brake system as the
mainstay. In addition, disc brakes are resistant to standing water so that vehicles that have used disc brakes can hit the
flood.
• Then the disc brakes have a brake system that is cooled outside (open) so that cooling can be done when the car is
driving, there are some discs which are also equipped with ventilation (ventilatin disks) or discs that have holes so that
brake cooling is more maximally used.
• The use of disc brakes is widely used on the front wheels of vehicles because the thrust to stop at the front of the
vehicle is greater than at the rear so it requires more braking at the front. But now there are many cars that use disc
brakes on all four wheels.
• b. Lack of disc brakes
• Disc brakes that are open to facilitate dust and mud adhere, over time the mud (dirt) can inhibit the performance of the
incubation to damage the components on the caliper, such as a piston if left for a long time. Therefore it is necessary
to clean as often as possible.

• B. Description of Activities
• 1) Remove the brake fluid from the brake fluid reservoir (reserve tank) located in the front of the engine room.
• 2) Remove the air in the brake fluid channel from the farthest distance from the master cylinder. For example, if the master cylinder is located on the front of the right side, then the farthest wheel
cylinder is the left rear wheel. This removal can be done by stepping on the brake pedal several times.
• Note :
• - Brake fluid must be replaced every 20,000 km or 1 (one) year depending on which is achieved first.
• - Wash immediately the surface of the paint affected by brake fluid, because brake fluid will immediately damage the surface of the paint.
• 1) Use the ruler to measure the thickness of the brake shoes (figure A)
• 2) Check visually, and make sure there are no noticeable differences between the inner and outer brake shoes (figure B).
• 4) Change the brake shoes if the brakes have exceeded the limit.
• c. Check Wear and Damage in the Brake Disc
• Visually Check Wear and Damage in the Brake Disc
• Check for abnormal wear on the brake disc such as :
• 1) Burned, this can be seen from the color of the black disc brake surface
• 2) Thickness of the outside and inside
• 3) Run out
• 4) Or other damage (cracks, plaques, etc.)
• d. Brake Caliper Check
• Caliper Brake Check
• 1) Check the brake fluid leak on the brake cylinder piston
• 2) Check the sliding pin for possible jams
• 3) Check the brake piston for possible jams
• e. Disc Thickness Check
• Brake Disc Thickness Check
• 1) Clean the surface of the brake disk with a clean cloth
• 2) Measure the thickness of the rotor disc using the out side micrometer
• f. Disc Slight Check
• Brake Disc Slight Check
• 1) Temporarily tie the brake disks with nuts to the bolts
• 2) Before measuring run out, check the free play bearing front wheel hub, whether it is still within specifications
• 3) Measure using the dial gauge, and rotate the dish slowly
• g. Brake Pad Replacement
• Front Brake Pad Replacement
• 1) Remove the brake pad
• 2) Remove the front brake caliper
• 3) Remove the two pad kits with anti-squeal shims
• Note :
• -Do not release / open the flexible hose from the brake caliper
• Replacement of the new brake pad kit:
• 1) Use lithium base glycol grease (grease) on the surface of anti-squeal shims
• 2) Put the shims on the pad kit
• 3) Install the two pad kits with anti-squeal shims
• 4) Install the caliper
• 5) brake pedal a few times and check the brake fluid level should be on the "MAX" line and add if less.
• Note :
• - Pad kit replacement is required as follows anti-squeal shims
• - Make sure there is no oil or grease on the pad kit's friction surface
• h. Piston Into The Caliper To Install A New Brake Pad
• Push Piston Into The Caliper To Install A New Brake Pad
• 1) Use the hammer handle to push the brake piston into the brake cylinder
• 2) Do this carefully, if you push it too hard, you can add an iron rod (asphalt) to be connected
• Note :
• -To prevent brake fluid from brake fluid recovery. When the brake piston is pressed open / loosen the
bleeder plug
• -Those are some processes that you can do to take steps to care and repair the disc brakes.
• C. Supporting and inhibiting factors
• 1. Supporting Factors
• a) Equipment in a complete workshop
• b) Can ask the workshop supervisor
• c) Can help each other with friends and study groups
• d) Much knowledge can be obtained or given to the Workshop
• e) There is a sense of togetherness
• 2. Inhibiting factors
• a) A lot of equipment in the workshop is broken
• b) Lots of equipment lost
CHAPTER III
CONCLUSION
• A. Conclusion
• Industrial Work Practices Activities are activities that are very useful for students and can get to know more about how to
work in the field according to the expertise of each student. So students can see a picture of business activity in the future, and
students know the competency standards that will be used as work opportunities and job opportunities.
• In the business world, good discipline is needed, agencies usually need disciplined, skilled, diligent and smart employees.
• Another objective of the Internship (Industrial Work Practices) is to broaden students' knowledge, especially in the fields
where they are located. There is also a preferred place that is in the sorting room archives, writers can learn and can find out
that the author has not gotten so far, especially knowledge about the various archives available.
• Industrial Work Practices have been implemented well, with their respective expertise programs without any obstruction and
the authors would like to thank the Supervisors at Batam Kartini Vocational School who have been willing to accept writers as
they are to carry out Internship (Practice
• Industrial Work) and are willing to assist the writer during the Internship.
• B. Suggestion
• The author realizes that in writing this paper there are still many errors and shortcomings. Therefore the
authors apologize profusely, presumably constructive criticism and suggestions I need.
THAT’S ALL AND THANK
YOU
