ABSTRACT:
A method of producing a rotatable brake component and bearing assembly is disclosed wherein the brake friction surface of the brake component is oriented in a predetermined relationship relative to an inner race of a bearing unit. In accordance with this method, a rotatable brake component (e.g., a rotor or drum) defining an axis and including a brake friction surface and a hub portion having a cylindrical bore formed therein is provided. Next, the bore of the hub is machined. A bearing unit is then installed in the bore of the hub portion. The bearing unit includes an outer race which engages the bore and an inner race rotatably supported relative thereto. The brake component and bearing assembly is then supported on a machining apparatus by the inner race of the bearing unit. Using the machining apparatus, the brake friction surface is machined whereby the brake friction surface is oriented in a predetermined relationship relative to the inner race of the bearing unit.
