GSP9700 Road Force Measurement System

The patented HammerHead™ TDC weight placement laser is a new option for GSP wheel balancers that speeds clip-weight balancing service. Activated by the ServoDrive system, the HammerHead weight placement laser lines are projected onto the top-dead-center of the rim flange when the wheel weight position is automatically located.

The HammerHead TDC laser increases balance accuracy, productivity and shop profitability and ensures weight attachment accuracy, resulting in more single-spin balances and superior ride satisfaction. An added fluorescent light illuminates the operator’s work area.

Top-dead-center laser lines are projected onto the rim flange when the wheel weight position is located.

Precision wheel weight placement is fast and easy using the HammerHead TDC laser as a guide.

Angle errors from even slight misjudgment of the TDC location lead to an inferior and time-consuming balance with excessive checkspins.

Inner Dataset® Arm

Inner Dataset® arm determines exact placement for weights and allows automatically measures weight positions on wheels up to a 30” (762 mm) diameter.

Automatic Double Dataset® Arms

Inner and Outer Dataset® arms speed wheel data direct-measure input and placement of clip-on or adhesive weights, increasing accuracy and allowing more single-spin balances.

This feature eliminates the need for the technician to select balance modes, reducing service time and possible mode entry error. Balance mode is selected automatically based on the position chosen for the Inner Dataset arm or Outer Dataset arm.

When the technician places the Inner Dataset arm...

… DOWN inside the wheel, the balancer automatically selects “Tape-Weight Mode”.

… UP on the wheel, the balancer automatically selects “Clip-Weight Mode”.

Rim Scan Feature*

The inner Dataset arm will trace the exact wheel contour and store the scanned distances and diameters for all available tape weight locations selected by the operator. Rim Scan also offers the benefits of Automatic Weight Positioning to increase the capability to single-spin balance with SmartWeight® technology.

Patch Balance® Feature

The perfect choice for oversized custom wheels and tires. With 4x4 and street cruiser tire weights growing in size, the Patch Balance® feature solves excessive lead or adhesive weight balance problems by using weighted patches inside the tire. Rim-mounted weights can be reduced or eliminated. Increase profits by balancing oversize tires that others turn away.

Optional AutoClamp Feature

The optional AutoClamp is positioned and tightened automatically saving time and effort. There are no time-consuming shaft threads to take up and no additional wing nut tightening is required.

CenteringCheck® Feature*

This patented feature, exclusive to Hunter wheel balancers, ensures that the wheel is properly centered when mounted on the balancer, eliminating guesswork when choosing mounting accessories or set-up errors on problematic wheels.

SmartSpoke™ Weight Locator Feature
Derived from SmartWeight® balancing, the SmartSpoke™ weight locator feature exclusively enables the technician to achieve the best possible balance by placing­­ only a single adhesive weight behind one wheel spoke instead of two weights behind two spokes. This feature reduces weight use, minimizes labor time and speeds the balance procedure.

Split Weight® Mode*

• Exclusive Split Weight® mode key splits the clip weight into two smaller weights and relocates them on the wheel. Repeated use of the key presents multiple split-weight choices.
• Eliminate weight inventory over 2.25 oz. increments on passenger-car, SUV and light-truck applications.
• Shift the weight position to avoid obstructions, such as trim ring clips.

Servo Stop and Servo Push Drive Control*

Servo Stop automatically rotates and holds the wheel at the desired top-dead-center clip-weight or bottom-dead-center adhesive-weight location. Servo Push operates with a push of the wheel, automatically rotating the wheel to the next weight placement position.

BDC Adhesive Weight Placement Laser

Activated by the ServoDrive system, the BDC laser line automatically identifies the bottom-dead-center position for fast adhesive-weight application by helping guide operator to optimal location for correct weight placement.

Quick Cal-Check® Calibration Feature*

Just attach the calibration weight and press “start”. In just a few seconds, this patented and exclusive feature confirms balancer calibration.

Spindle-Lok® Brake Feature

Tapping the foot brake activates entry and storage of wheel data. The foot brake also locks the spindle for easier tightening and loosening of the wing nut.
