Road
Force Series
Solves
vibration and tire pull problems balancers
and aligners can’t fix |
|
The exclusive Road
Force Measurement® system applies
up to 1,400 pounds (635 kg) against the
tire. The loaded roller detects non-balance,
radial-force-related vibrations caused
by eccentricity and constructional variation
of the tire and wheel. Unlike non-contact
measurement, the roller samples the entire
footprint of the tire including the sidewall’s
contribution to ride quality.
Going far beyond the traditional
functions of a wheel balancer…
The Road Force GSP9700 measures radial
and lateral tire forces and provides instructions
for solving ride and handling problems
that other balancers and wheel aligners
cannot fix.
Hunter’s Road Force GSP9700 is
endorsed and recommended by vehicle manufacturers
and proven by thousands of repair facilities
worldwide as the leader in…
1. Wheel Balancing
2. Radial Force Calculations and Eccentricity
Measurement
3. Lateral Force Tire Pull Measurement |
Benefits
of the GSP9700’s Three-In-One Diagnostic
Repair Capability:
• Solves Vibration Problems
Balancers Won’t Fix
Detects non-balance, radial force-related
problems associated with:
| |
• Tire uniformity.
|
| |
• Tire and rim runout. |
| |
• Wheel-to-balancer mounting
error. |
| |
• Improper bead seating
of tire to rim. |
• Faster Troubleshooting
& Repair
Quickly calculates the contributions
of the rim and tire to radial vibration
problems and presents the technician
with easy step-by-step repair instructions.
• Identifies Potential
Vehicle Pull or Drift Problems
The optional StraightTrak® LFM**
feature measures lateral tire force
then applies that information to a set
of tires, providing multiple placement
choices to eliminate or minimize pull
problems.
• Dramatically Improves
Ride Quality & Customer Satisfaction
Duplicates vibration measurement and
tire/wheel matching methods previously
used only by vehicle manufacturers to
provide that “new car ride.”
• Increases Wheel Service
Income
Establishes your shop as the vibration
and handling control experts. Reduces
comebacks and enables you to service
vehicles that other shops turn away.
* Requires optional
StraightTrak® LFM feature.

DSP9200
Wheel
Balancer with Digital Accuracy |
|
 |
ServoDrive is a patented,
programmable DC drive system that offers
the operator complete control and the
fastest possible balancing service. The
wheel can be rotated in either direction
with variable speed and torque. Clip-on
and tape weight locations are automatically
positioned for application, while the
Servo Push feature allows the operator
to quickly change to the next weight position. |
1. Wheel Graphic Interface
Auto-prompting “road map”
display of the tire/
wheel assembly shows the wheel weight
mode
selected by the operator and helps guide
the
technician through balancing procedures.
2. Digital Rotary Encoders
Hunter’s unique rotary encoders
combine
easy-to-use dials with precise digital
data entry.
Variable speed encoder knobs let the user
dial
fast to get in range and then slower to
find the
exact number. Durable knobs can’t
be damaged
by over-rotation.
3. Expanded Soft Key Controls
Keys are labeled with simple, easy-to-read
icons. Operators can easily get to where
they
want to go fast!
4. Mode Indicator Lights
The display panel helps the operator visually
monitor the balance mode.
5. 360° Weight Angle Display
Display shows weight position and weight
“shadow” when a position is
located on the
bottom half of the wheel. Aids clip-on
weight
placement at Top Dead Center (TDC) and
tape
weight placement at Bottom Dead Center
(BDC).
6. Operation Placard
New employees can update themselves on
advanced DSP features using step-by-step
operation placards mounted on the back
of
the display panel.
