Haweka Australia wheel balancing technology

Truck & light truck - centering technology

Accurate and repeatable Truck wheel balancing is increasingly important with the rapid increase in truck running costs.
Most wheel balancers have adaptors, none have adaptors that fully meet the demands of the Australian market. Imported truck wheel balancers do not have the correct adaptors for the Australian market. A mix of European, Japanese and American trucks
Haweka Australia has met the need with the Haweka truck adaptors. Truck balancing is no different to car balancing, except the wheels are bigger and the weights are larger. The same principles we apply to car wheel balancing apply to truck. Dynamic balancing using the off vehicle wheel balancer is the only way to solve balance problems. Front cone balancing of heavy truck wheel results in huge remount errors (in excess of 300 grams). Haweka truck adaptors are the solution.
The key is the design which shifts the weight of the wheel from the wheel balancer shaft and Haweka adaptors. The special nipples on the end of the studs support the wheel's weight and distribute it evenly over the Haweka adaptor. Haweka adaptors reduce the remount errors to less than 50 grams.
