(latest NCVER data)Machining brake drums and rotors, taught through AURTTB013 Machine brake drums and brake disc rotors, restores braking surfaces only when measurements, lathe set-up and minimum thickness limits are handled with care. It suits RTOs building light vehicle apprenticeship pathways that need precise measuring and machining skills, and AURTTB013 learning materials can be built around the brake lathes in their workshops.
Learners develop skills in measuring drums and rotors with vernier calipers, micrometers and dial gauges, evaluating results against specifications, preparing and positioning components in a brake lathe, machining on and off the vehicle, visually evaluating finished surfaces and disposing of metal swarf safely.
Start with our AURTTB013 RTO training materials and avoid developing brake machining content internally. Purchase RTO materials and contextualise the AURTTB013 training resources to your lathe equipment.
This package of AURTTB013 training materials provides a prepared foundation for machining brake drums and brake disc rotors. Purchase RTO materials to save development time and start with AURTTB013 learning materials ready for workshop delivery.
Check the latest unit requirements on training.gov.au before delivery. Your team should contextualise and validate these AURTTB013 training materials for its learner cohort, delivery model and selected compliance environment. Use the supplied mapping as a starting point when reviewing your AURTTB013 materials against the Standards for RTOs.
AURTTB013 Machine brake drums and brake disc rotors focuses on measuring, evaluating and machining vehicle brake drums and brake disc rotors to manufacturer specifications. It applies to people working in the automotive service and repair industry.
The unit addresses five core areas:
Learners machine the four disc rotors of a four-wheel disc system and either two rear drums or all four drums of a drum system. The tools are developed as compliant learning resources, but assessors should check their workshop vehicles allow this.
Yes. The content explains both off-vehicle and on-vehicle machining equipment, so your team can focus on whichever methods your workshop uses.
The Learner Guide and Classroom Activities give learners structured practice with vernier calipers, micrometers, brake drum micrometers and dial gauges before machining.
No. The unlimited student licence has no per-student fees, subject to the applicable licence conditions.
Yes. A free sample lets your team check the structure and level of detail before purchase.
