MGM Brakes’ e.STROKE electronic brake monitoring system for air disc brake applications builds upon the company’s GEN 3 electronics, cabling and diagnostic software and adds a new optical sensing technology to monitor air disc pushrod stroke and caliper lever arm movement. The new GEN-3D system continuously monitors every brake apply and release and notifies braking problems via a dash warning light alerting the driver to a potential braking problem and a J-1939 real-time transmission of any fault condition which can be relayed via onboard data recording and reporting systems. By monitoring the braking system in real-time, the GEN-3D can detect non-functioning brakes, dragging brakes and over stroke brakes.
