Abstract

See full text

A method and a wheel balancer for balancing a vehicle wheel, comprising: predetermining, dependent from the type of the vehicle wheel, axial positions for positioning at least a single correction weight on the wheel surface, predetermining, dependent from the vehicle type, thresholds for the residual static and dynamic imbalances; obtaining imbalance data for the vehicle wheel during a measuring run; calculating from the imbalance data the respective mass and angular position of a correction weight each in one of the predetermined axial positions on the vehicle wheel; comparing each of the predetermined static and dynamic residual imbalances with the achieved static and dynamic residual imbalances, when the calculated respective correction mass is placed by simulation in one of the axial position in the different angular positions; and placing the single correction weight with the calculated mass in the calculated angular position in that axial position in which the residual imbalances are within the predetermined thresholds.
