Bei starker Unrundheit bauen Sie den Läufer aus und überdrehen Sie den Kommutator auf einer Drehmaschine. Der Kommutator kann entsprechend abgedreht werden. Die Abdrehgrenze ist durch stirnseitige Abdrehung sichtbar. I can only imagine this process as truing and facing, but am not quite sure here.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Comment: "Thank you Nicole. I had to post the two terms abdrehen and überdrehen as separate entries - it was the juxtaposition of the two that caused the problem really, as both terms seem to describe the same process. "

: My first thought. This is what you do to brake rotors when they are out-of-round. See: http://www.howtodothings.com/automotive/how-to-process-or-tu...
