The latest generation of computer wheel balancers offer a much more in depth and advanced level of service than their predecessors, and thanks to the high quality software and the way in which the machine’s many sensors are able to read the movement of the wheel are able to deliver fantastic results every time.
Unlike traditional wheel balancing equipment that relies as much on the experience and understanding of the operator, a computer wheel balancer is able to fully diagnose the condition of the wheel, and recommend appropriate positioning of the balancing weights on the wheel rim to ensure a much truer run.
Having properly balanced wheels on a car will provide a much better ride, and better handling of the car, which will also have a major impact on the overall fuel economy provided over the long term. With a computer wheel balancer, you will be able to achieve even better results than were ever possible with conventional techniques, and in the long term, this will have a positive effect on the whole customer experience.
Any workshop that wants to build a reputation for providing the best possible service should always examine ways in which the latest technology can be brought to bear on any of the tasks that they are called upon to carry out on a day to day basis. Investing in the best quality of equipment such as a computer wheel balancer will ensure that your kit is completely set up to provide a much more precision driven experience for customers.
A top end computer wheel balancer is designed to provide the easiest to use and accessible information to make the whole process of balancing the wheels as accurate as possible. The Ammco AMMXR1800 is the most advanced computer wheel balancer currently available, and features a number of refinements over previous models to give the operator the best chance of getting the job done perfectly every time.
The AMMXR1800 features a full suite of diagnostics software that is able to isolate the cause of any imbalance in the wheel, and by providing an animated 3D display of the wheel in motion; it is possible to model the exact position at which weights and additional balancing are required. The keyboard can be used to give commands to the computer wheel balancer, and offer a variety of solutions as the diagnostic programme is run. A full function computer wheel balancer will measure a number of different factors as it compiles its report. Data collected by the system includes the vertical and horizontal movement along with the movement in any other direction. This allows for thousands of calculations to be made at any time, and in the course of the test, the powerful computer at the core of the wheel balancer will produce a highly accurate response.
The key aspect to consider when choosing a computer wheel balancer is the quality of the modelling that it offers through its display screen and the degree of accuracy that you can get from the computer diagnostic software.
