The invention relates to an automotive brake pad production line which comprises a tabletting device, a thermal treatment device, a grinding device, a drilling device, a code spraying device and a conveying device connected among the former. Through the tabletting device, a concave die can be closely clamped, so that position of the concave die can be adjusted accurately; through the thermal treatment device, an automotive brake pad storage shelf after being subjected to thermal treatment can be automatically conveyed to a goods storage area, and heat transfer efficiency of a drum brake pad is improved; through the grinding device, an automotive brake pad is closely clamped, and position of an automotive brake pad clamp can be adjusted accurately, so that grinding accuracy is improved remarkably; through the drilling device, the automotive brake pad is closely clamped, the position of the automotive brake pad can be adjusted accurately, and a clamping clamp can be accurately positioned, so that drilling accuracy is improved remarkably; through the code spraying device, the brake pad is clamped closely, code spraying accuracy is improved, and one-step code spraying forming of multiple batches of brake pads is realized.
