The new Technique

15 February 2013  

The Technique T2520 Professional tyre changer and T2100-2 Computerised Wheel Balancer head up the range of wheel servicing equipment from Trade garage Equipment. The automatic tyre changer features ‘lever less’ operation to avoid damaging expensive wheels and also reduces the stress to the machine and user. Instead, a push button-controlled ‘finger’ picks up the tyre and removes it from the rim. It consists of an air-operated tilt back column and a pneumatically operated robotic ‘assist’ arm to tackle difficult or stiff low profile and run-flat tyres. The T2520 has a turntable clamping capacity up to 26″ diameter. The Tw100-2 wheel balancer can handle wheels up to 21″ wide and 37″ in diameter. It features twin displays, automatic data input via an automatic measuring arm and a range of programmes including behind spoke balancing and sensitivity down to one gram.
