METHOD FOR MACHINING PLANE SURFACES OF A DISK BRAKE FOR MOTOR VEHICLES

摘要

A brake disk is machined the by first fitting to a wheel hub centered on a hub axis and having a radially projecting flange a wheel bearing having an outer bearing race formed with an axially directed mounting surface for attachment to a motor vehicle. Then the mounting surface of the outer bearing race is clamped axially to a stationary workpiece carrier so as to mount the wheel hub on the workpiece carrier. A brake disk having a pair of opposite faces extending substantially perpendicular to the axis is then secured to the flange and the wheel hub and the brake disk are rotated about the axis. Then the faces of the rotating brake disk are engaged with machining tools to surface machine the faces.
