The use of wheel balancing machine steps

The use steps of the wheel balancer usually follow the following process to ensure that the tire can accurately enter the action balance adjustment:


First, preparation

1. Tire inflation: First, inflate the tire to the manufacturer's recommended air pressure value. This is the basis of forward action balance, because the air pressure of the tire will directly affect its balance state.

2. Cleaning and inspection:

- Remove the original balance blocks on the tire, which may have been added during the previous balancing operation.

- Clean the gravel, soil and other debris in the tire pattern ditch, as well as the dirt on the rim, to ensure that the tire and rim surface is clean and free of foreign matter.

- Inspect tires and rims for damage or deformation, and repair or replace them if necessary.


Second, install the tires

1. Choose the balance shaft: according to the specification and size of the tire, choose the right balance shaft.

2. Install the tire: Install the mounting surface of the tire inward on the balance shaft to ensure that the tire can be firmly fixed on the balance shaft.

3. Locking device: Select the appropriate vertebral body and use the locking device to firmly lock the tire on the balance shaft to prevent the tire from moving or falling off during the measurement process.


Third, measurement preparation

1. Turn on the power: Start the power supply of the wheel balancer and prepare for measurement.

2. Measuring distance: Use a ruler or the measuring tool of the balancing machine to measure the distance between the rim and the balancing machine. Some balancing machines may also need to measure parameters such as the width and diameter of the rim.

3. Input data: Input the measured data into the balancing machine control system. These data are crucial for calculating the unbalance of a tire.


Fourth, start measuring

1. Press the Start button: When everything is ready, press the start button on the balancing machine, and the balancing machine will start to drive the tire to rotate and measure.

2. Wait for the measurement to be completed: During the measurement process, the balancing machine automatically detects the vibration of the tire during rotation, and calculates the unbalance and its position. After the measurement is complete, the balancing machine automatically stops rotating.


Fifth, add a balance block

1. Rotate the tire: according to the instructions of the balancing machine, rotate the tire to the position of the unbalance. Usually, the balancer indicates the position of the unbalance by means of an indicator light or a display screen.

2. Add a balance block: Add an appropriate number of grams of balance block on the inside or outside of the tire. The number of grams of the balance block should be determined according to the instructions of the balancing machine to ensure that the unbalance can be eliminated or reduced.

3. Repeat measurement: After adding the balance block, repeat the measurement steps until the balance machine shows that the tire has reached a dynamic balance state (usually a value of "00" or close to "00").


End your work

1. Turn off the power: After the measurement is completed, turn off the power of the wheel balancer.

2. Take off the tire: Remove the tire that has been dynamically balanced from the balance shaft and prepare to install it on the vehicle.

Through the above steps, you can ensure that the wheel balancing machine can accurately and efficiently adjust the balance of the tire inlet action, so as to improve the driving stability and safety of the vehicle.
