READ MORE1. The design of the automatic slack adjuster fully considers the needs of users in the actual assembly process. By adopting advanced structures and mechanisms, the assembly process becomes extremely convenient. Users can easily complete the assembly without deliberately pushing the control arm to the bottom, which not only reduces the difficulty of assembly, but also significantly improves the assembly efficiency. Over-adjustment of the gap may lead to problems such as decreased equipment performance and insufficient stability. The intelligent automatic slack adjuster can ensure the accuracy of the gap adjustment through precise automatic adjustment function, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of over-adjustment of the gap caused by installation errors and further improving The stability and reliability of the equipment.
2. Because the automatic slack adjuster adopts advanced adjustment mechanism and precise sensor technology, it can monitor and adjust the changes of the gap in real time to ensure that the gap always remains within the set range. This stable and reliable gap adjustment capability not only improves the overall performance of the equipment, but also extends the service life of the equipment, bringing higher cost-effectiveness to users.
3. The slack adjuster adopts a high-efficiency motor with the characteristics of low power consumption and high efficiency, which reduces energy consumption and operating costs. Through the optimization of intelligent energy-saving algorithms, the slack adjuster can automatically enter low-power mode when not in use, further reducing energy consumption. During the manufacturing process, we used environmentally friendly materials and followed international environmental standards to ensure the environmental friendliness and sustainability of our products.

READ MOREAutomatic slack adjuster: the smart guardian of the automobile braking system
——Exploring the technological innovation path of Zhuji Tianbo Auto Parts Co., Ltd.
1. What is an automatic slack adjuster? How does it become the "invisible guard" of modern automobile safety?
In the automobile braking system, the gap between the brake shoe and the brake drum directly affects the braking performance. As the vehicle mileage increases, the wear of the friction plate will cause the gap to expand. If it is not adjusted in time, it will cause problems such as longer brake pedal travel and attenuation of braking force, and even threaten driving safety. The role of the automatic slack adjuster is to monitor and compensate this gap in real time through mechanical or electronic means to ensure that it is always maintained within a reasonable range of 0.25-0.5mm. Zhuji Tianbo Auto Parts Co., Ltd. has been deeply involved in this field. The automatic slack adjustment device it developed adopts a non-self-locking threaded structure and realizes "wear and compensation" through a two-way adjustment function, which not only avoids the tediousness of traditional manual adjustment, but also significantly improves the reliability of the braking system.
2. What is the unique technology of Tianbo's automatic slack adjuster?
As a supplier serving many well-known automobile brands, Tianbo innovatively combines the friction limit and wedge-type adjustment principles. For example, its products set elastic metal rings in the wheel cylinder pistons, and use hydraulic pressure to push the friction ring outward when braking, and use spring return to lock the gap when releasing the brake. This design can cope with the screw shortening of up to 135mm, meeting the stringent requirements of heavy-duty commercial vehicles. It is worth mentioning that Tianbo's ST brake adjuster series adopts modular design, with a working length covering 250-600mm, suitable for the installation space of different models. Its cylinder diameter is only 100mm and the weight is as light as 33kg, but it can withstand the ultimate tensile force of 78.4kN, fully reflecting the manufacturing concept of "quality first, excellence".
3. Why can automatic adjustment technology become the key to commercial vehicle safety upgrades?
According to statistics, about 15% of commercial vehicle accidents worldwide are related to brake system failures. Tianbo's products reduce the longitudinal impact force of trains by more than 30% by maintaining the consistency of the brake cylinder piston stroke, which is particularly important for freight trains that weigh hundreds of tons. When the device detects an abnormal gap, the main spring drives the screw to expand and contract. The entire process does not require manual intervention, and the maximum shortening can reach 50mm at a time, ensuring that the response time during emergency braking is shortened by 0.3 seconds - this is equivalent to reducing the braking distance of a 40-ton truck by 6 meters at a speed of 80km/h. It is this extreme pursuit of safety details that makes Tianbo products a long-term partner of companies such as FAW Jiefang and Sinotruk.
4. Facing the transformation of new energy vehicles, how does Tianbo maintain its technological leadership?
As the demand for lightweight and energy recovery in electric vehicles grows, traditional braking systems are facing innovation. Tianbo has proactively developed an integrated electronic control adjustment module that monitors gap changes in real time through displacement sensors and uploads data to the vehicle control system in combination with the CAN bus. This intelligent adjustment arm is not only compatible with regenerative braking conditions, but also can predict wear trends through cloud data analysis, extending the maintenance cycle by 40%. At present, its latest generation of products has passed 2 million durability tests and can still maintain an adjustment accuracy of 0.02mm in extreme environments of -40℃ to 120℃, perfectly interpreting the corporate purpose of "customer satisfaction, pursuit of better".
5. From parts to system solutions, how does Tianbo build a service ecosystem?
Unlike simple product supply, Tianbo has established a full life cycle service system from design consultation, working condition simulation to after-sales monitoring. Its technical team can customize development and adjustment parameters for customers, such as optimizing the sealing structure for the problem of brake fluid gasification in plateau areas, or designing anti-rust coatings for cold chain logistics vehicles. This "technology + service" dual-wheel drive model enables the company to occupy 4.2% of the global automotive clearance adjuster market in 2024, and has obtained the "zero defect supplier" certification from the OEM for three consecutive years.
Today, as the automotive industry moves towards intelligence and electrification, Zhuji Tianbo Auto Parts Co., Ltd. is redefining the safety boundary with its independently innovative automatic clearance adjustment technology. From the torque control of each bolt to the coordinated optimization of the entire braking system, this company, rooted in the Yangtze River Delta manufacturing cluster, has been writing a new chapter in China's intelligent manufacturing with its twenty years of unwavering focus.
