Overview
The Hunter ACE22 AutoComp Elite is a premium on-car brake lathe that combines automatic compensation, Anti-Chatter Technology, and advanced digital controls to deliver superior rotor resurfacing performance. Equipped with a 7-inch tablet interface and Digi-Cal measurement system, this model enables technicians to machine rotors directly on the vehicle with precision and speed. The 1.5 HP variable-speed motor with reversible operation cuts rotors twice as fast as traditional lathes while virtually eliminating chatter-induced vibration. With PRO adaptors and comprehensive vehicle coverage, the ACE22 is designed for high-volume brake service operations requiring accuracy, efficiency, and professional results.

Key Features
Anti-Chatter Technology
Patented variable-speed drive system oscillates machining speed to prevent vibration buildup, delivering smoother surface finishes while cutting approximately twice as fast as fixed-speed lathes.
Automatic Compensation
Direct compensation system calculates exact plate positioning in 12 seconds or less on average, making up to five adjustments per revolution to exceed OE requirements and eliminate manual guesswork.
Digi-Cal Measurement System
Measures rotor dimensions and depth of cut from the end of the cutter shaft, displaying real-time thickness and warning when attempting to cut below manufacturer specifications.
7-Inch Tablet Interface
Touchscreen provides full lathe control, instant access to vehicle specifications and rotor data, on-board training videos, BitMinder cutting bit tracking, and language support.
Reversible Variable-Speed Motor
1.5 HP motor with reverse rotation and class-leading torque handles high driveline drag on trucks and performance vehicles, avoiding labor-intensive drivetrain component removal.
PRO Adaptors Included
Professional adaptor package provides coverage for 3-, 4-, and 5-lug vehicles with 112-210mm bolt patterns, extending to almost all vehicles up to 3500 series trucks with extended twin cutter.
