Features That Make Expert Balancing Easier and Faster….

HammerHead™ TDC Clip-On Weight Locator Laser

The ServoDrive activated laser lines automatically identify the “Top-Dead-Center” position to assist with fast clip-on weight placement. The system helps to increase balance accuracy, productivity and shop profitability. The HammerHead feature ensures weight attachment accuracy resulting in more single-spin balances and superior ride satisfaction. The fluorescent light also illuminates the operator’s work area.

Ordering Information

The HammerHead option can be added by ordering by ordering part number 20-2166-1 from your authorized Hunter agent.

Top-dead-center laser lines are projected onto the rim flange when the wheel weight position is located.

Precision wheel weight placement is fast and easy using the TDC laser as a guide.

HammerHead reduces weight placement errors by eliminating misjudgm­ent of the TDC position, which often occurs using other methods. Such visual errors lead to an inferior and time-consuming balance with numerous checkspins.

Reduce Service Time With...
SmartSpoke™ Locator Feature

Derived from SmartWeight® balancing, the SmartSpoke weight locator feature enables the technician to achieve the best possible balance by placing­­ only a single adhesive weight behind one wheel spoke instead of two weights behind two spokes. This feature reduces weight use, minimizes labor time and speeds the balance procedure.

The SmartSpoke balancing feature resulted in less weight used and reduced service time.

Without the SmartSpoke feature more weight and time is used.

Reduce Service Time With...
Automatic Weight Mode Detection**

Balance mode is selected automatically based on the position chosen for the Inner Dataset® arm or Outer Dataset® arm.

This feature eliminates the need for the technician to select balance mode, reducing time-consuming key closures and possible mode entry errors. No need for multiple balance mode choices or PAX wheel system programs.

Determine Exact Weight Placement With...

BDC Adhesive Weight Placement Laser

• ServoDrive activated laser line automatically identifies the “Bottom-Dead-Center” position to assist with fast adhesive weight application.

• Helps guide operator to optimal location for correct weight placement for accurate phase angle.

Get Hidden and Alternative Weight Positioning With...

Split Spoke® & Split Weight® Modes*

• Split Spoke® mode automatically locates the best “out of sight” position for adhesive weight placement on custom wheels.

• Split Weight® mode offers multiple weight choices, reduces large weight inventories and avoids trim ring obstructions

Get Fast Setup With...

AutoClamp* Feature
The optional AutoClamp feature saves time and effort. The clamp adaptor is positioned and tightened automatically. There are no time-consuming shaft threads to take-up and no additional wing nut tightening required.

Get Precise Wheel Contour Information With...

Rim Scan Feature
The inner arm will trace the exact wheel contour and stores the scanned distances and diameters across the entire available tape weight locations selected by the operator. Also offers the benefits of Automatic Weight Positioning to increase the capability to single spin balance with SmartWeight technology.

Quickly Locate Weight With...

Servo Stop und Servo Push Drive Control*
Servo Stop automatically rotates and positions wheel to each desired weight location (TDC or BDC) with the touch of a button or by simply pushing the wheel.

* Patented

Achieve Accurate Measurement Data With...

Automatic Double Dataset® Arms
Inner and Outer Dataset® arms speed entry of exact chosen weight location and double as measuring tools for lateral and radial runout. Speeds placement of clip-on or adhesive weights while increasing accuracy and single-spin balances.

Get Instant Communication With...

Foot Pedal Data Entry
Tapping the foot brake activates entry and storage of wheel data.

Foot pedal also locks spindle for easier tightening and loosening of wing nut.

Prove Wheel Centering With...

Wheel CenteringCheck®* Feature
This feature, exclusive to Hunter wheel balancers, ensures that the wheel is properly centered when mounted on the balancer. Uniquely eliminates guesswork when choosing mounting accessories or questioning set-up error on problematic wheels.
