How OWNSILENT manufactures C/SiC rotors
Inside the carbon-ceramic production process
These production references document OWNSILENT's general carbon-ceramic manufacturing process — carbon-fibre preparation, preform production and precision machining. They are reference production photography and are not specific to this vehicle.
Rotor processing chamber
The chamber and workpiece are clearly visible, but the exact finishing or treatment operation needs confirmation from factory documentation.
Carbon fibre sheet handling
A wide workshop view records careful sheet positioning before the material advances to the next visible preparation operation.
Carbon fibre sheet alignment
The straight-on composition makes the material width, layered construction and operator-controlled alignment easy to inspect.
Frequently asked questions
718 carbon-ceramic upgrade, explained
Why upgrade a 718 Cayman to carbon-ceramic brakes?+
A carbon-ceramic upgrade reduces rotational and unsprung weight, improves fade resistance under sustained track use, and resists the corrosion that affects iron rotors over time.
Does this cover the Cayman, Boxster, GTS and GT4?+
Rotor diameter, thickness, offset, hat depth and caliper clearance are confirmed against the verified trim and VIN before production, since factory brake packages vary across the 718 range.
Can the factory calipers be retained?+
Yes, in the applications OWNSILENT supports the upgrade rotor is engineered around the verified factory caliper. Its part number, mounting geometry, pad shape and condition must agree with the approved specification before production is confirmed.
Is this a direct bolt-on upgrade?+
The rotor and hardware are engineered to the confirmed factory mounting relationship, but professional installation, torque checks and bedding remain required for a safe conversion.
What information should I send for a quotation?+
Send the VIN, trim and model year, wheel size, clear photographs of the current rotors and calipers, and any OEM part numbers visible on the components.
Who should install the upgrade?+
Installation, torque procedures, brake-fluid checks, bedding and final road-safety inspection must be completed by a qualified brake technician.
