I’m the Southeast Florida Rep for Pro-Cut. The 9.2 DRO compensates in 30 seconds or less & cuts any rotor in 5-7 minutes. The unique feature of this particular model is that you can retrieve usage data from the machine and deliver ROI(return on investment) reports. This unit will pay for itself. Most 4 wheel brake jobs can be performed in an hour or less by a good technician. If your shop is in Palm Beach, Broward, Miami/Dade or Monroe counties, cal me at 305-878-5077 for an in store demo.

A large percentage of workshops use it when changing pads. It provides one of the better retail channels. Feedback tells us 90% of car drivers would pay £10-£20 per disc to ensure safer braking and not have the bedding in period.

Does anyone offer this to customers when they are changing just pads? I use it on warranty work and sales car prep but think I could be missing a trick. It seems like a good way to make some extra profit and it’s got to be better than telling customers to drive carefully whilst their pads bed in. Can anyone let me know if they’re doing it and if it’s working?

All Porsche dealers and most Ferrari dealers in the UK have a Pro-Cut and use them all the time on drilled discs. For best results, machine one side of the disc at a time, then lightly sand with 300 grit for 2 mins per side and then wash off with brake cleaner. You will then have fantastic pedal with no noise or vibration.

not “over” – I meant to write “offer” sry for that

Can you use this machine to lathe cross-drilled or slotted brake discs as well? I hope you don’t mind if I’m a little nosy… I’d like to know how much you charge your customers for lathing the discs (I’m not from the UK and I’m just curious about the pricing over there). Personally I think that you should always lathe your discs before you change your pads. Not many shops over that though.
