Let's think about it. if you are driving a car on the slippery road you see a stone in front of you. what will you do? you definitely apply the brake. but your car will skid. and it can collide with stone.
it is time to look ABS and it's operation. what it will do?
ABS
ABS
ABS system prevents the wheel from locking up in the form of repeating cycles( pad are moving on disc at the very faster rate ).
pads are used to lock the disc, not once but again and again the disc locked with the help of pads. while cycles of pads are repeating that time you can change the direction of your vehicle. ABS system can cycle up to 16 times per second. it gives time to save the vehicle from the accident.
- ECU ( Electronic control unit )
- speed sensor
- Pump
- valves
- ECU: Here ECU is the best partner of ABS. you can say it is the CPU and the other are like the input-output devices.ECU calculate the acceleration, deceleration, speed of the wheel and adjust to them according to balancing. and it regulates the hydraulic pressure according to wheel balancing.
- speed sensor: sense the acceleration & deceleration of the wheel.
- pump: pump use to restore the pressure.
- valve: the valve is the mechanical controller. they control the pressure of the brake.
- Less stopping distance
- improved steering control
