John Bean Wheel Balancer, No. B2000P

April 6, 2016

The John Bean Wheel Balancer, No. B2000P, from Snap-on Equipment, is the only automated diagnostic wheel balancing system that offers touchless measurement and analysis, according to the company. Automatic inputs remove the chance for error and inaccurate results. When combined with precise wheel balancing, the Runout Force Vectoring (RFV) diagnostics assure uniformity based total ride quality. The laser-based runout measurement measures with a resolution of 0.004” (0.1mm) to create a 3D model of the tire and wheel assembly. Tire tread and sidewall color analysis allows depth, wear and abnormalities to be displayed in a simple-to-interpret format with the automatic 3D tire laser mapping system. A color display shows the location of any imbalance and identifies the optimal tape or clip-on weight location.
