If the runout is more than 0.05mm over a full rotation, then the rotors are likely warped. Also, the thickness variation at a specific radial position should not vary by more than 0.01mm around the diameter, measured with a micrometer.
Thanks for the procedure. I am curious. I had considered running them on a CMM but it would be hard to maintain torque on the rotor unless i built some sort of jig. A bit more detective work than I am willing.
