GLOSSARY

Below is a brief description of some techni-
cal terms used in this manual.
SELF-CALIBRATION
This procedure calculates suitable correc-
tion coefficients starting from known operat-
ing conditions. It improves the machine
accuracy by correcting to a certain extent

CALIBRATION

CENTRING
Procedure for positioning the wheel on the
wheel balancer shaft to ensure that the shaft
axis corresponds to the wheel rotation axis.
BALANCING CYCLE
Sequence of operations to be performed by
the user and the machine from the beginning
of the spin until the wheel is braked to a
stop after calculating the unbalance values.
CONE
Conical element with a central hole which,
when inserted on the wheel balancer shaft,
is used to centre the wheels having central
holes with a diameter ranging between
maximum and minimum values.
DYNAMIC BALANCING
Procedure for unbalance compensation by
applying two weights, one on each of the
two wheel sides.
STATIC BALANCING
Procedure for correcting only the static
element of the unbalance, by applying only
one weight, usually at the centre of the rim
well. Accuracy increases as the width of the
wheel decreases.
FLANGE (of the wheel balancer)
Circular crown-shaped disk against which
the disk of the wheel mounted on the
wheel balancer rests. Also used for keeping
the wheel perfectly perpendicular to its
rotation axis.
FLANGE (adapter - centring accessory)
Device for supporting and centring the
wheel. Also used for keeping the wheel
perfectly perpendicular to its rotation axis.
Mounted on the shaft of the wheel balancer
by means of the central bore.
RING NUT
Wheel blocking device on the wheel bal-
ancer, fitted with elements for coupling
with the threaded hub and side pins for
