Atlas Platinum PWB50 2D Computer Wheel Balancer

Atlas Platinum PWB50 Self-Calibrating 2D Computer Wheel Balancer

The PWB50 is an electronic wheel balancer with an easy to read LED display and that offers Automatic 2D Data Entry via a single data entry gauge. Whilst there are a multitude of ALU weight placement configurations, the weight placement arm actually enables the operator to choose the most convenient position for the weights, and the machine will guide the operator back to that exact position after the spin cycle, ensuring accurate dynamic adhesive weight application. The Fast & Easy Split function (FES) makes hiding adhesive weights behind the spokes a breeze and the Opposite Weight Function (OWF), allows an operator to change the weight application position from 12 o’clock to 6 o’clock for convenient access when applying adhesive weights. Optimization of tire and wheel unbalance (match mounting) is possible with the PWB50 via OPTIMATCH software and makes balancing even the most difficult assemblies easy and efficient.

The PWB50 is a feature packed, high volume passenger vehicle wheel balancer that guarantees speed, accuracy, and a long life by combining Italian engineering and components with the Factory Direct Value that ATLAS is known for around the World.

HOW WHEEL BALANCERS WORK:
The computer within the balancer receives the premeasured values of wheel dimensions and responds to the output of a rotational speed sensor that monitors the rotational speed of the shaft. When the required speed is reached, the mechanical system automatically decouples the powered cranking shaft from the wheel shaft so that there can be no externally applied disturbances for the subsequent measurements of imbalance. Multiple spaced transducers along the shaft determine the wheel run-out attributable to imbalances in both the inner and outer wheel rim planes and the computer provides output signals indicative of the correct balance weight and the mounting positions of the weights on the wheel rim.
