New Pro Truck 2D Wheel Balancer for Trucks, Buses and Passenger Vehicles

Wheel balancers have gone high tech.

The new R544 Pro Truck 2D wheel balancer from Rotary,  features a microprocessor with self-calibration and self-diagnostic features. It also has specific balancing programs for static, dynamic and light alloy/aluminum wheels.

According to the company “one single spin with low rotation speed provides all the necessary values.”

The R544 can raise up to 441 pounds with the integrated wheel lift and features a pneumatic wheel lock. An electro-pneumatic brake keeps the wheel in the unbalance position. The digital caliper with optical scanner provides 2D automatic data input of distance and diameter up to 26 inches.

Noted Rob Dabrowski, vice president of wheel service equipment for Rotary parent company Vehicle Service Group (VSG), “The self-calibration and self-diagnostic features allow you to handle anything that rolls into your shop.”
