METHOD FOR PRODUCING A BRAKE CALIPER, MACHINING TOOL FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD, BRAKE CALIPER PRODUCED USING THE METHOD, AND DISK BRAKE HAVING A CALIPER OF SAID TYPE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing a caliper for a caliper-type disk brake, in particular for utility vehicles, wherein the caliper has the following: a brake-application-side caliper section (10) with at least one support surface (22.1, 22.2) for absorbing clamping forces during braking, a rim-side caliper section which is formed in one piece with the brake-application-side caliper section (12), and a first recess (14) which is situated between the two caliper sections and into which at least one brake disk projects at least in sections in the installed state. It is provided according to the invention that, to form the support surface, a machining tool (40) is moved through the first recess into the region in which the support surface is to be formed.
