Hofmann geodyna 8250p Wheel Balancer

April 9, 2016

A video wheel balancer for cars and light trucks, the Hofmann geodyna 8250P, from Snap-on Equipment, features fully automatic data entry via scanner and smartSonar, the pinpoint easyWeight laser, integrated wheel lift and a touchscreen interface. This balancer automatically indexes the wheel to the correction position depending on balancing mode once operator selects amount of unbalance and the Power Clamp pedal-operated electro-mechanical clamping system firmly holds the wheel in place. A patented ergonomic wheel guard saves space in the shop while keeping the handle positioned at a comfortable height. High-accuracy laser technology measures the degree of deviation from a perfect circle, enabling match-mounting to improve roundness and reduce geometric vibrations.
