WinmaX has been a trailblazer among aftermarket brake pad manufacturers by being the first to implement full-size dynamometer and noise testing machines for development purposes.

In addition to testing methods based on JASO and SAE standards, we utilize our proprietary range testing patterns catered to meet the needs for specific customer applications.

In dynamometer testing, we simulate various scenarios such as street driving and circuit racing by altering vehicle speed, brake fluid pressure, and rotor temperature. This allows us to evaluate effectiveness, performance characteristics such as friction coefficient and torque, noise performance, pad and rotor wear, and crack resistance.

The key to these testing patterns is their alignment with real-world conditions, where our extensive experience plays a crucial role.

Facilitated through our unique global network, WinmaX brake pads undergo real-world evaluations performed by professional drivers in various categories of motorsports.

In addition to analyzing logger data, we are developing products with the utmost emphasis on the human sensory feedback, which is difficult to quantify in dynamometer tests.

The evaluation of a friction material is not only based on its potency and performance, but also includes assessment on strength, thermal expansion and contraction, compressibility, and anti-corrosion performance.

There are strict in-house standards for each of these items, and if a product does not meet these standards, it will not be released to the market.

These properties often involve trade-offs, and WinmaX continues to research and develop friction materials that achieve an optimal balance of these characteristics.
