Abstract: In this project a problem is identified and analyzed, modified and resulted. The problem identified in this project was thickness gets varied in mass production of brake linings which leads to various material losses during grinding operation. The thickness variation is mainly obtained during preforming and curing operation. In this project a problem is identified by various strategies of man, material and mould. Various analyses were taken on the strategies and concluded with a problem. The solution to the problem was obtained on the detailed study of the strategies and arrived with different alternatives. On that the best alternative is the designing of a plate which gives a permanent solution to the problem. In this project a plate is introduced in mould of performing machine to reduce thickness avoiding material losses. This project mainly deals with increase in productivity, time consumption and fulfilling customer satisfaction.
Keywords: Machining; optimization; material; designing; productivity; customer satisfaction.
