Main
characteristic
The
TP/32
has been conceived to turn brake discs on passenger cars and
off-road vehicles without taking off the brake disc from the wheel
hub.
The
execution of the turning operation on the disc rotation site removes
a possible manufacturing imperfection, assembling mistake or
machining inaccuracy when the operation is carried out by means of a
traditional lathe, re-establishing the perfect surface and geometric
matching between pads and brake disc and obtaining in this way the
full braking efficiency from the beginning.
TP/32
executes
also drum and flywheel turning on the above stated vehicles
Alignment
to the hub
TP/32
has
to be connected to the hub by means of some adaptors, after this we
advise you to properly check the disc run-out and to proceed with
the eventual adjustment in order to obtain a perfect
perpendicularity between disc and the rotation axis.
The
intermittent feeding
The
intermittent feeding acts on the displacement of the tool-holder
group and it allows the tools to engrave concentric circles on the
disc surface (see picture), so that we avoid the formation of the
classical spiral effect on the surface which is the main responsible
of the brake pad radial shifting and the consequent braking problems.
Other
characteristics
When
protecting carters are not mounted on the internal side of the disc,
the lathe can be positioned in any position of the 360°, so that it
will not be necessary to dismantle the calipers.
All
commands are directed towards the operator and particularly the tool
setting, that can be done with the lathe turned on by means of an
hand-wheel located on the external side of the toolholder, in a
favorable position to the operator, avoiding in this way the hazard
of acting on the interior side of the fender when the lathe is
running.
