Brake Disc Runout & DTVBrake disc runout and DTV (Disk Thickness Variation) are important measurements in understanding brake performance and wear. Disc runout and DTV can give valuable insights into how brakes are performing and can be used to diagnose faults and even design issues.

The customer needed to perform accurate measurements of runout and DTV across a range of vehicles. The tests needed to be carried out both on and off the vehicle and needed to be quick to setup and perform.

Six displacement probes connected to a Prosig P8012 are used to measure the disc at three radial positions on both the inside and outside of the disc. The disc is then rotated and two tachomoter channels record the angular information.

Brake disc runout and DTV is then calculated using the DATS Toolbox software and automatically presented as a report in a Microsoft Word document.
