ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for grinding a disc brake disc having opposite surfaces, the apparatus comprising: a free-standing support; a pair of rotors, at least one of which is a grinding rotor, the rotors attached to the support to extend in spaced relation at opposite sides of a disc for grinding at least one face of the disc, wherein at least one rotor is pivotally attached to the support and can be moved toward and away from the disc independent of the other rotors; adjustment means attached to the support to allow adjustment of the angle of at least one rotor in relation to a face of the disc; and drive means to rotate at least one of the rotors. A method of grinding a disc brake disc having opposite faces utilizing a pair of rotors at least one of which is a grinding rotor, wherein the rotors are pivotally mounted on a freestanding frame, the methods comprising the steps of: locating the rotors at opposite sides of the disc; engaging the rotors with the opposite faces of the disc by moving the rotors towards the faces of the disc; adjusting the angle of the rotors in relationship to the faces of the disc to achieve optimal contact with the rotors and the faces of the disc; and rotating the grinding rotor.
