ABSTRACT:
A process is provided for automatically reforming rotary drum brake shoes preferably by an apparatus 100 that includes an adjustable sensing member (30) that monitors the distance ("L") between end openings (8) and (12) of a brake shoe (2) supported by support member (26, 26') adjacent its opposite ends. Member (30) generates a reference signal that is compared to stored dimensional standards established therefor and, if not within the limits, a control signal is generated that causes a bending member (20) to bend brake shoe (2) transversely between supports (26, 26') until its configuration falls within the dimensional limits established therefor. Apparatus (100) is preferably operative to first monitor the width ("X") of openings (8) and (12) and, if outside of the tolerance standards established therefor, enable the reforming process to be stopped rather than continue.
