8th May 2007 - Braking and Friction Consultancy Practice Improved and Re-organized

The braking and friction technical consultancy of Rod McLellan Associates Ltd  has recently undertaken a major assessment of the braking industry in the 21st century and introduces an increased level of service designed to offer cost effective expertise tailored to fit individual client’s needs.

To support this enhanced service, senior consultant Rod McLellan is joined by friction material expert Bob Gardner and brake systems expert John Brightmore.

As international standards and the requirements of continually changing regulation and legislation effect product quality and product demands, they are now able to offer:-

 ▪ A wide range of expertise in the allied disciplines of friction materials, braking systems, type approval, brake testing and expert witness testimony.
 ▪ The services of three well known engineers and scientists with an exceptional track record in the areas of passenger car and commercial vehicle braking to ensure any contract is continually monitored for optimum results.
 ▪ Bespoke friction material formulating, processing and raw material solutions.
 ▪ Investigations into air braking, hydraulic braking and electrical braking systems performance, including stability, noise and wear concerns.
 ▪ Project management and delivery of brake type approvals.
 ▪ Training and personnel development support for organizations and brake specialists.
 ▪ Expert witness services and testimony for prosecution or defence cases and technical expertise and advice for legal council

The growth and restructuring of Rod McLellan Associates Ltd is a response to the recognition that as the industry changes and progresses, consultancy services must also change and progress to provide effective support and relevant technical expertise.
