Wheel balancer calibration – essential for accurate measurements
An uncalibrated balancer may produce inaccurate results, leading to incorrect placement of wheel weights. This, in turn, can cause vibrations during driving—discomfort for the driver and a potential risk of suspension damage.

Other consequences of improper wheel balancing may include:

  • Accelerated tire wear
  • Premature deterioration of steering components
  • Increased fuel consumption due to poor contact between the tire and road surface

Regular balancer calibration helps your customers avoid these issues and maintain service quality.

How to calibrate a wheel balancer?
Calibration is a straightforward process that can be carried out independently. With REDATS calibration tools, the procedure is quick and efficient:

  1. Prepare the balancer - Ensure the machine is clean and ready. Inaccurate readings are often caused by internal contamination.

  2. Attach the calibration weight - Place the weight exactly as directed by the manufacturer.

  3. Run the calibration program - Navigate to the calibration function in the balancer menu (usually clearly marked).

  4. Wait for results - The machine will perform the necessary measurements and display the results.

  5. Adjust settings if needed - If discrepancies appear, follow the service manual instructions to make corrections.

That’s it. By following these steps and performing regular maintenance, the machine can deliver accurate readings-an essential standard in professional service environments.

Why regular calibration is critical for measurement accuracy
Think of a wheel balancer as a precision scale—without regular checks, its readings may become unreliable. The same applies to wheel balancing:

Consequences of skipped calibration include:

  • Incorrect balancing - Can result in steering wheel vibrations, excessive tire wear, and possible suspension damage

  • Reduced driving comfort and safety - Vibrations affect both comfort and control

  • Shorter tire lifespan - Unbalanced tires wear unevenly and faster

  • Loss of customer trust - Drivers noticing vibrations after a balancing job may question service quality

Regular calibration is a long-term investment in service safety, accuracy, and customer satisfaction.
