Brembo S.p.A. is an Italian manufacturer of automotive brake systems, especially for high-performance cars and motorcycles based in Bergamo, near Milan.

Brembo was established in Bergamo, Italy in 1961. Soon after the company was formed, it specialised in disc brakes, which were imported from the UK at the time. The company entered into a supply contract with Alfa Romeo in 1964. It became the supplier of brake components to Moto Guzzi in 1966.
In the 1980s, Brembo began supplying BMW, Chrysler, Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, and Porsche with brakes. The company went public on the Milan Stock Exchange in 1995.

On November 9, 2007, the Automotive Brake Components division of Hayes Lemmerz was acquired by Brembo's North American subsidiary. The approximately €39.6 million sale included production facilities in Homer, Michigan and Apodaca, Mexico and approximately 250 employees.[2]
An official press release on May 21, 2014 announced an €83 million expansion of the Michigan facility. On December 2, 2014, Brembo announced plans to invest €32 million into a 31,500 square meter production facility, which is projected to produce 2 million aluminum calipers yearly. The current expectation is initial operation beginning in 2016 and full operation by the end of 2018.[3]
Brembo's deputy chairman Matteo Tiraboschi reported on March 5, 2015 the company's 2014 sales growth of 15% up to €1.8 billion, and a net profit increase of 45% to €129.1 million.

V16 ENGINE

V16 ENGINE A  V16 engine  is a  V engine  with 16  cylinders . Engines of this number of cylinders are uncommon in automotive use. A V16 engine is perfectly balanced, so long as its constituent  straight 8  banks are balanced, regardless of the V angle. That is to say, it does not require contra-rotating  balancing shafts  which are necessary to balance engines with odd numbers of cylinders in-line or those equipped with counterweighted crankshafts like the 90°  V8 . In addition V angles of 45° and 135° give an impulse every 45°, so are optimal solutions, for  even-firing  and non-split bearing  crankshaft   journals . V16 engines are rarely used in automobiles because V8s or  V12s  of the same  displacement  typically produce just as much power, and are much less expensive to manufacture and maintain. The few V16s that have been produced were used in high-end luxury and high-perfor...
