This pro le envisages the establishment of a plant for the production of disc brake pads, linings
with a capacity of 40,000 pieces (145 gm per piece average weight) per annum. Disk brake
linings are friction materials used in vehicles for the purpose of generating friction between two
contact surfaces in order to produce a required effect.
The demand for disc brake pads, linings is met entirely through import. The present (2021)
demand for disc brake linings is estimated at 590 tons. The demand for disc brake linings is
projected to reach 947 tons and 1,329 tons by the year 2025 and 2030, respectively.
The principal raw materials required are asbestos and resin, which have to be imported.
The total investment cost of the project including working capital is estimated at Birr 6 million.
From the total investment cost the highest share (Birr 4.22 million or 70.45%) is accounted by
xed investment cost followed by initial working capital (Birr 998.86 thousand or 16.64%) and
pre operation cost (Birr 774.36 thousand or 12.90%). From the total investment cost Birr 932.25
thousand or 15.53% is required in foreign currency.
The project is nancially viable with an internal rate of return (IRR) of 26.74% and a net present
value (NPV) of Birr 5.19 million discounted at 10%.
The project can create employment for 21 persons. The establishment of such factory will have
a foreign exchange saving effect to the country by substituting the current imports. The project
will also create forward linkage with the automotive sub sector and also generates income for the
Government in terms of tax revenue and payroll tax.
Product Description and Application
Disk brake linings are friction materials used in vehicles for the purpose of generating friction
between two contact surfaces in order to produce a required effect. One requirement of brake
linings is to withstand heat and wear, whenever friction is generated.
Automotive and industrial brakes use lining made of either woven form of asbestos bers mixed
with llers and bonding material, and some cotton or copper wire or other suitable materials.
Materials used to bind and saturate the linings to make them imperious to oil and moisture are
asphalt, natural gum, oil and synthetic resin
Plant Capacity
The market study shows high demand gap for disc brake lining. However, it is advisable to start
production at a lower scale. It is thus proposed that a plant with a production capacity of 40,000
pieces (145 gm per piece average weight) of brake lining per annum, be established.
The brake
lining will have a speci cation of 45 x 5.6 x 240.110 R or (width x thickness x length-
inside of
lining x radius). The plant will operate by a single shift of eight hours a day, and 300 days a
year.
Production Program
The plant will start operation at 75% of its installed capacity. Production capacity will then build
up to 85% and 100% in the second and third year respectively. It is then assumed that
production will be maintained at 100% in the subsequent years. Table 3.3 below shows
production program of disc brake lining.
Here, it is intended to use asbestos and resin as major raw materials. The aggregate cost of raw
materials required by the plant is estimated at Birr 3.96 million, out of which about Birr 3.6
million will be required in foreign currency. The raw materials indicated above are not available
locally. They are to be imported from Europe, Middle East, and Asia. Auxiliary materials
required by the proposed plant include friction particles, organic and inorganic llers. Annual
requirement of raw and auxiliary materials and corresponding costs are shown in Table 4.1.
The production process of brake lining (for vehicles) involves sequential operations. The dry
powder is rst formed in to appropriate shape. It is formed in to a continuous sheet, and then
baked in to rigid form, curved in one direction with a diameter corresponding to the nished
diameter of the brake lining. In the case of large linings are half blocks for diameter of the brake
lining. In the case of large linings are half blocks for commercial vehicles linings are baked
individually.
The linings are then nished by cutting precisely to size a grinding to ensure exact
alignment with the shoe (for bonded types) and the brake drum. The linings are then drilled and
riveted, and bonded to the prepared brake shoes, which may be either new or trade-
in parts from garages.
Total cost of machinery and equipment is Birr 1,057,250. Machinery and equipment required by
brake lining producing plant and the corresponding costs are shown in Table 5.1.
The total land area required is 800 m2 of which the total built-
up area of the plant is estimated to be
400 m2. The cost of building and civil work at the rate of Birr 5,000 per m2 is estimated at Birr 2
million.

A Standard project report for new business ventures is quite important in getting the
project itself off the ground. Therefore the project Feasibility Study report should be
prepared as per National Bank Standards.
The project report covers all the aspects of business; from analyzing the market,
con rming availability of various necessities such as plant & machinery, raw materials to
forecasting the nancial requirements. The project also provides sectoral information,
brief on Government policies and international scenario, which have some bearing on
the project itself.
The scope of the report includes assessing market potential and investment decision
making. in a very planned manner by formulating detailed manufacturing techniques
and forecasting nancial aspects by estimating the cost of raw material, formulating the
cash ow statement, projecting the balance sheet etc.
A SWOT analysis is often carried out in the initial reports. This helps to identify the
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the business or a project.
