Case Study: Pedal Travel Sensor for Braking System to optimize the precision

By Jokin Arruabarrena, Product Engineer at RPK Mexico, and Oscar Carranco, Engineering Manager at RPK Mexico.

Our RPK Group engineering teams support you in creating, designing, and developing unique components from scratch or improving the performance of existing parts. This time we were tasked with creating a solution for a Pedal Travel Sensor.

The Challenge

Our customer commissioned RPK Group to create a component to ensure the Pedal Travel Sensor remains precise, considering the quality of the application in the Electronic Braking System.

Proposed part

RPK has designed a special product that fulfils the customer’s needs based on RPK Group’s 50 years of experience in Braking Systems.  Our expert team at our Technological Center has created a new product with added value for the customer.

Brake pedal sensor technology

Once the dimensions of the component were defined, a special process was developed to ensure the assembly of the Pedal Travel Rod with 100% mechanical and visual verification.

The RPK Group has demonstrated its expertise and innovative approach by delivering a unique solution to one of the largest and most prestigious brake system manufacturers in the market. This success reinforces our position as leaders in engineering excellence and our ability to transform our design ideas into manufacturing reality.
