ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method including the steps of fixedly securing a brake rotor with a first rotatable fixture. The brake rotor includes a hat and a pair of plates, an inboard plate and an outboard plate. The method also includes the step of rough-cutting a plurality of surfaces of the brake rotor while the brake rotor is fixedly secured to the first rotatable fixture. The rough-cutting operations can be performed with one or more cutting tools. The method also includes the step of finishing the plurality of surfaces while the brake rotor is fixedly secured to the first rotatable fixture. The brake rotor can be completely processed, with respect to cutting operations at least, at a single workstation while supported by a single rotatable fixture.
