This Frost & Sullivan research service entitled 'North American Original Equipment Brake Systems Markets' provides detailed analysis of the foundation brake and electronic brake systems markets. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following markets: disc/drum and disc/disc systems, hydraulically and electrically actuated systems, and antilock an·ti·lock

Of or being a motor vehicle braking system that electronically monitors and adjusts individual wheel speeds during braking to prevent the wheels from locking.
 brake and stability control systems. Traction control systems A traction control system (TCS), on current production vehicles, are typically (but not necessarily) electro-hydraulic systems designed to prevent loss of traction (and therefore the control of the vehicle) when excessive throttle or steering is applied by the driver. , emergency brake assist Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) is a safety system in vehicles designed to ensure maximum braking power is used in an Emergency stop situation. By interpreting the speed and pressure at which the brake pedal is pushed, the system detects if the driver is trying to execute an emergency  systems, electronic brake force Brake force is a measure of braking power of a vehicle.

In the case of railways, it is important that staff are aware of the brake force of a locomotive so sufficient brake power will be available on trains, particularly heavy freight trains.
 distribution systems, and mechanical and electric parking brakes are briefly discussed.

Market Overview

The once-stodgy brake systems market is about to experience an upswing Upswing

An upward turn in a security's price after a period of falling prices.
. Not only has a transition from antilock brake systems to stability control systems begun, but hydraulic foundation brakes look set to be replaced by electrohydraulic and full-electric systems. Electrohydraulic systems that retain conventional calipers on the front wheels while using electric calipers on the rear wheels will allow vehicle makers and buyers to gain experience with electric braking technology. Once customers have gained confidence in electric brakes, full-electric systems are likely to follow. At one time, it was thought that full-electric systems would work only with 36/42-volt automotive electrical systems Automotive electrical system

The system in a motor vehicle that furnishes the electrical energy to crank the engine for starting, recharge the battery after cranking, create the high-voltage sparks to fire the compressed air-fuel charges, and power the

Thus, full-electric brakes do not have to wait for the much-delayed upgrading of automotive electrical systems.

Frost & Sullivan's new service, North American OE Brake Systems Markets, is segmented into two core chapters - one on foundation brake systems and one on electronic brake systems. Each chapter quantifies its market segments, forecasting unit shipments, average prices, and revenues to 2012. Additionally, market drivers and restraints as well as market and technology trends are covered. Industry challenges and market participants are discussed in a Total Market chapter.
