Features
Mount The Wheel With Our Patented Power Clamp
- Select the proper mounting cone for the wheel
- Place the wheel on the mounting shaft
- Depress the locking foot pedal
- Center and clamp the wheel automatically with consistent clamping pressure using the patented Power Clamp for unmatched repeatability
- Lower the wheel guard
Collect Measurements in Six Seconds!
- Virtual Plane Imaging (VPI) measurements and laser imaging captures the profile of the wheel and compares the information to specifications
- In six seconds, the color display shows the location of any imbalances and identifies the optimal tape or clip-on weight location
Radial Runout
- Determine whether the wheel and/or tire are in or out of tolerance
- Results indicate the need for tire-to-wheel matching to help improve ride quality
Wheel-Only Runout
- Perform runout at the bead seat for diagnosis of wheel-only problems
Automatic Spoke Detection
- Spokes are counted so that weights can be placed behind them as needed
Tread Depth Laser Detection
- A pass/fail graphic displays whether tread depth is above or below preset height
Match-Mounting
To make the most of your Wheel Balancer investment, pair the BFh 1000 with one of John Bean’s High-Performance Tire Changers. The BFH 1000 uses touchless, laser imaging technology to determine the optimal match for each tire and wheel assembly. The Quadriga ATC 1000 then quickly indexes the tire and wheel. Eliminate customer comebacks by reducing vibration due to non-uniformity issues!
The Benefits of Optional Opti-Line™ Software
- Helps to improve ride performance and pull problems that cannot be fixed by wheel alignment alone
- Eliminates multiple tire rotations to reposition tires and reduces times required for road tests significantly
- Handles any kind of wheel, including wheels with directional tires
- Addresses pull or vibration-related issues by suggesting the optimal location for each wheel in the set based on tire conicity (pulls) or radial runout (vibration)
- Enhances straight-ahead steering stability of the vehicle
Weight Wizard*
- Tracks weights used over time by color type and weight
- Records weights used on every job automatically
- Tailors weight purchases to save money by buying only what you need
Optional WeightMiser™ Software
- Recommends lower weight amounts whenever possible to drive cost reduction
- Shows productivity benefits over time in dollars saved and also the amount of weight savings as percentage of total weight used
