TILT System - Perfect Mount without efforts
for wheel balancers

For a quality wheel balancing, good mechanics can do a lot.
FASEP V653 and B441 wheel balancers are equipped with a TILT System for maximum accuracy when balancing any kind of wheels.

A unique advantage: Tilt-system and horizontal mounting.
Centering the wheel perfectly and with no efforts becomes easy and minimizes come-backs!
On any normal wheel balancer, mounting the wheel needs a lot of attention by the operator, as centering the wheel is a critical operation in the whole balancing process. Proper centering is affected by the weight of the wheel and fatigue of the operator.
The Tilt-system of this balancer allows a wheel to be mounted horizontally on the wheel balancer, so that centering is always perfect, regardless of operator training, skill and fatigue.

 
1. HORIZONTAL MOUNTING means perfect accuracy of centering, without efforts. Centering is not affected by the weight of the wheel.

2. TILTING is automatic (V653) or manually operated (B441).

3. MEASURE and BALANCING is done in vertical position for maximum user convenience to apply weights.

 
Install it in the right place
Mounting the wheel horizontally, instead of vertically by side, is a good choice also if you think that the wheel to be balanced has usually just been fitted on a tyre changer, where it also laid in horizontal position. A TILT balancer should be ideally located nearby the tyre changer or at the end of a tyre mounting line like those manufactured by Ahcon, for example.
