Features

Dual Assist Arms on the Changer

Upper and lower roller arms hold the tire bead in the drop center during mounting, which is what makes low-profile and run-flat tires manageable on a swing arm machine.

5,512 lb Bead Breaker

The 186-steel cylinder delivers 5,512 lbs of force at 10 bar, with an embedded plastic pad protecting the wheel finish.

3D Millimeter Wave Radar Data Entry

The FWB-8833 measures rim dimensions automatically; no manual parameter input before balancing. One-button smart positioning rotates the wheel to the balance point.

Laser-Guided Weight Placement

A laser marks the exact weight location on the rim, cutting the guesswork out of placement on the first pass.

Rim Protection on Both Machines

Embedded plastic covers the changer's bead breaker blade, turntable claws, and working head; the balancer's contact points are protected the same way.
