Typical Cases of Friction Material Formulation | 24 Hopper I Field Deployment of a Mobile Railcar Automated Batching System

Automotive brake pads, clutch discs, and other friction materials involve a wide variety of product categories and complex material properties. Traditional fixed‑type batching equipment suffers from constrained layout, insufficient measurement accuracy, and a high risk of human error in manual batching, resulting in poor batch-to-batch consistency—factors that have long hindered companies’ efforts to improve quality and efficiency. To address these industry challenges, Wuxi Xielì has leveraged its proprietary core technologies to launch… 24 Hopper friction material I Type Mobile Railcar Automatic Batching System , providing the friction materials industry with high-precision, highly stable, intelligent batching solutions.

This system is a cost-effective, fully automated equipment package that employs 24 A mature configuration featuring a silo paired with a single three-bucket weighing vehicle, with equipment footprint dimensions of length… 23m , wide 6m , high 9m It boasts exceptional site adaptability. The equipment is compatible with a wide range of material forms, including powders, fibers, and granules, and leverages award‑winning wireless communication‑based batching control technology to automate the entire process—from batching and transfer to feeding—while seamlessly integrating with downstream blending equipment. This technology has received multiple national‑level industry science and technology awards and has passed ministerial‑level appraisal; it delivers precise metering, stable operation, and supports rapid switching among multiple formulations, meeting the flexible production needs of enterprises.

Compared with traditional fixed‑batch batching equipment, this system comprehensively addresses the challenges of complex multi‑material batching. Equipped with barcode‑based error‑proofing and end-to-end production data recording, it effectively eliminates batching errors and enables full‑process traceability. Once deployed, the equipment significantly reduces labor requirements, minimizes batching inaccuracies, and ensures consistent product quality, while also improving workshop dust control—helping enterprises achieve all‑round upgrades in quality, cost reduction, and operational efficiency.

The system has been successfully deployed. Hebei Xingyue Brake Components Co., Ltd. 、 Xivi Automotive Components (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
