GSP9600 QuickMatch Wheel Balancer

The GSP9600 Quickly Measures Runout With EVERY Balance!

The Hunter GSP9600 QuickMatch® wheel balancer uses loaded roller contact to measure runout (eccentricity) of a tire and wheel assembly and helps your shop eliminate wheel-related vibration.

The fastest and most reliable method to measure runout is with a loaded roller system that provides contact across the footprint of a tire’s surface.

The GSP9600’s roller quickly measures the entire footprint of a tire and will detect if a tire and wheel assembly are out of round.

Non-contact devices that measure runout only sample a small area of the tire surface, which can produce inconsistent results. Plus, non-contact measuring devices cannot take into account tire sidewall stiffness, which often contributes to vibration problems.

 

The GSP9600’s loaded roller provides the fastest and most accurate runout measurement.   Non-contact runout measurement systems often provide inconsistent results and do not take into consideration the contribution of tire sidewalls to vibration problems.

 
     
The QuickMatch match-mounting feature on the GSP9600 tells the technician exactly how to rotate the tire on the rim to help eliminate vibration.   The GSP9600 measures lateral and radial rim runout without removing the tire from the rim and quickly indicates if runout is tire- or wheel-related. Runout can also be measured at the actual bead seat on a bare rim.

 

SmartWeight® Balancing Technology

Unique Benefits:

  • Reduces wheel weight costs 30% to 40%
  • Significantly reduces labor costs and service time
  • Simplifies balancer use
  • Eliminates shortcuts that affect quality
  • Automatically performs a better overall balance
 

Hunter Engineering’s patented SmartWeight® balancing technology is a revolutionary wheel balancing method that minimizes correction weight usage and maximizes productivity, saving money on both material and labor costs. SmartWeight balancing technology can reduce wheel weight costs 30% to 40%, reduce the time it takes to balance most wheels, and improve vehicle ride quality.

This new method computes correction weights by independently evaluating static (shake) and couple (shimmy) forces that cause dynamic vibration. Unlike traditional balancing, which displays balance conditions based on correction weight values alone, SmartWeight balancing uses the actual static and couple forces to directly address the source of vibration, resulting in the best possible balance.

Save Labor Time on More Than 30% of Balances!

SmartWeight technology typically reduces “floor-to-floor” cycle time on more than 30% of wheels balanced by using a single wheel weight to achieve the best possible static and couple balance.

Single Weight Correction With SmartWeight Technology


 

SmartWeight balancing software displays and stores wheel weight savings for each balance cycle and tracks wheel weight savings over time.

This example shows that for 2,438 wheels SmartWeight technology saved a total of 1,939.5 oz. (32%) of weight. Labor time was also reduced, because 53% of the wheels were dynamically balanced with only one weight required.
