What characterizes discs?

Disc-shaped workpieces are used in numerous drive technology and industrial applications, where they perform load-bearing, connecting or dynamic functions. Typical examples include brake discs, flanges, flywheels and other rotationally symmetrical components of this type. This geometry is characterized by flat functional surfaces, precise hole patterns, defined external contours and, depending on the design, additional centering or connection areas. This results in high requirements for flatness, dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

Typical machining requirements

When machining disc-shaped workpieces, process reliability and cost-effective production are key — especially when it comes to function-critical surfaces and interfaces. Depending on the workpiece, production includes turning, drilling and milling operations as well as the precise machining of connection dimensions and mounting areas. PITTLER offers flexible machine solutions that enable even demanding disc geometries to be manufactured efficiently and precisely in just a few setups. This creates reliable processes and consistently high quality throughout the entire manufacturing
