On-car Brake Lathes

Pro-Cut PFM X9 On-Car Brake Lathe

INTRODUCING THE PFM X9 DRO HIGH-PERFORMANCE BRAKE LATHE FROM PRO-CUT

The PFM X9 brake lathe combines Pro-Cut’s best-existing technologies, like the patented PFM one-button computerised compensation system and a 4-wheel, 4-axis, fully adjustable trolley. It combines them with a rigid new X-frame lathe chassis, powerful belt-driven high-torque drivetrain, and super bright 6 LED light to give you a clear path to higher profits! The X9 is digitally expandable to an optional G2X system. All X9’s come with Pro-Cut’s famous DRO display, including live run-out, productivity tracking, and lathe diagnostics.

The PFM X9 uses the same adapters and cutting head as the older 9.2 model but has been designed with a more robust drivetrain, body design, and LED lighting.

FITS ON MANY VEHICLES

The Pro-Cut adapters will connect you to almost any vehicle on the road today, giving you the power to turn even stiff all-wheel drive and truck axles. Plus, Pro-Cut’s simple set-up is the same, from compact cars to dual-wheel vans.

MATCHED DISCS AS A NEW REVENUE SOURCE

Tyres need to be balanced, wheels need to be aligned, and discs need to be matched. Adding disc matching to your service offerings adds a new revenue source.

MACHINE A DISC IN UNDER 10 MINUTES WITH OR WITHOUT A LIFT

2-post, 4-post, scissor, or even no lift….it doesn’t matter! Pro-Cut’s fully adjustable trolley allows you to roll up and mount your Pro-Cut lathe confidently. Once set up, you can resurface a brake disc in under 10 minutes and a whole car in less than an hour.

Why choose an On-Car Brake Lathe?

Some people may consider brake disc skimming an old-fashioned practice that stopped many years ago. Not true. Today’s on-car brake lathe technology, where Pro-Cut is the world leader, enables workshops to efficiently and accurately resurface brake discs offered as a supplementary service which can make additional profits.

Resurfacing brake discs should happen when:

  • Brake pads are changed, but new discs are unnecessary, which frequently happens. There is no bedding in, and your customer has perfect brakes as they leave your workshop.
  • There is evidence of brake vibration due to Disc Thickness Variation (DTV) or excessive run-out. For this problem, using an on-car lathe is the only permanent solution.
  • Discs are suffering from corrosion, resulting in poor braking performance or imbalance. This can also be unsightly, particularly on used cars in a showroom or forecourt.
  • The brakes are noisy.
  • When fitting new pads to ‘lipped’ discs, ‘brake squeal’ can result. This is fixable by skimming the discs to remove lips and producing perfectly flat disc surfaces.
