Key Features
Road Force Measurement
Diagnostic load roller mimics wheel performance under vehicle load to find and solve hidden causes of vibration and vehicle pull that traditional balancers cannot detect.
Patented Vision System
Inner and outer camera assemblies use structured light to scan the wheel during spin with no moving parts in camera/laser assemblies for ultimate reliability.
ForceMatching Technology
Locates the stiffest area of a tire and the lowest spot on a rim to be marked and match-mounted to cancel radial-force vibration, now up to 50% faster than previous versions.
StraightTrak System
Measures pull forces in individual tires and recommends wheel placement to cancel vehicle drift, providing enhanced pull diagnostics.
Enhanced SmartWeight
Utilizes scanned rim profile to deliver more accurate balance with more single-weight solutions and increased weight savings up to 30%.
Integrated Wheel Lift
Built-in wheel lift system handles heavy assemblies up to 175 lbs with ease, improving technician ergonomics and workflow efficiency.
