Product Overview
Hofmann Armored 2400P Wheel Balancer
The Hofmann Armored 2400P is built for high-throughput tire shops that need fast, repeatable balancing with minimal manual input. Its rugged touchscreen interface, non-contact measurement technology, power-clamping system and shop-ready steel construction combine precision with dependable everyday performance.
Automatic wheel measurement and guided weight placement help technicians move efficiently through each balancing cycle. A dual-user function allows two technicians to retain separate settings, while reporting capabilities provide useful visibility into completed wheel service.
Features and Benefits
Advanced Measuring System
Automatically detects wheel dimensions and selects the appropriate balancing mode, weight type and weight position, helping shorten setup time and reduce input errors.
Automatic Data Entry
Non-contact measurement technology captures wheel data automatically to streamline the balancing process and improve day-to-day productivity.
Automatic Spoke Detection
A laser scanner identifies the number and position of rim spokes, supporting accurate split-weight placement behind the spokes.
easyWEIGHT™ Placement
Laser guidance clearly identifies the correct weight location, reducing guesswork and helping technicians place weights precisely.
EV-Ready Capability
Precision balancing technology supports the demanding wheel-service requirements of conventional and electric vehicles.
Wheel and Tire Optimization
Helps optimize tire positioning on the rim to reduce imbalance and limit the amount of corrective weight required.
Optional Pneumatic Wheel Lift
The available heavy-duty wheel lift makes loading and positioning wheels easier, with support for wheels weighing up to 154 lb.
Power-Clamping System
Electromechanical clamping applies consistent force to secure the wheel, supporting accurate and repeatable balancing results.
QuickBAL™
Automatically adapts wheel revolutions to wheel specifications and operates at the appropriate speed to reduce cycle time.
Integrated Rim Lighting
Bright LED illumination improves visibility inside the rim for cleaning and precise placement of corrective weights.
Rugged Touchscreen Display
A large, high-resolution touchscreen provides an intuitive interface, easy-to-read values and color-coded weight-position indicators.
easyALU™ Assisted Entry
Touching the gauge arm to the rim allows the system to capture dimensions and select the applicable weight-balancing mode.
Smart Sonar
Sonar sensors automatically measure rim width, reducing manual entry and helping improve speed and measurement accuracy.
Split-Weight Mode
Supports discreet corrective-weight placement behind wheel spokes to preserve the finished wheel's appearance.
Stop in Position
A screen command automatically rotates the wheel to the correct weight-application position for faster, more convenient service.
