Do people machine rotors nowadays? I have always bought new.
It is likely that you have warped the rotors, normally this is done by sitting with your foot on the brakes with them hot. This creates a cold patch which means they cool unevenly.
You could try rebedding them. Generally done by braking fairly heavily from 70 to 40 three times in succession, then let them cool.
