Wheel alignment and balancing for heavy trucks and light trucks is the process of ensuring that the wheels and tires are equal and positioned so that they turn as well as possible when the truck is in motion.
Truck alignment also uses advanced technology to determine where the wheels are in relation to each other. This allows the technician to know where to make adjustments to ensure better wheel tracking.
Wheel balancing for heavy trucks involves placing each tire-wheel assembly on a specialized machine that spins the wheel at high speed to detect any imbalance or slight vibration. By analyzing centrifugal forces, the system identifies areas where small lead weights need to be added to ensure perfect balance around the axis of rotation. This process allows the wheels to be balanced correctly, ensuring that the tires are well balanced, reducing premature wear and improving road safety.
Wheels and tires, even those manufactured in the same batches, are never exactly the same.
This means that, in order to ensure the smoothest ride possible, you should have them balanced periodically. Wheel and tire alignment takes into account manufacturing differences that may occur. It also corrects for wear and tear caused by driving the truck.
When your wheels and tires are out of balance, you will notice vibrations in your truck when driving and hear excessive road noise.
Wheel balancing involves distributing weight evenly around the axis of rotation of each tire-wheel assembly. Using specialized machines that simulate real driving conditions, technicians detect imbalances that can cause vibrations or abnormal tire wear.
Small weights are then added to balance each wheel and ensure that they turn smoothly and steadily, without wobbling or imbalance.
Wheel alignment involves adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. Poor alignment can lead to uneven tire wear, excessive fuel consumption, and cause the vehicle to pull to one side.
Technicians use high-precision equipment to analyze wheel alignment and make the necessary adjustments directly to the truck’s suspension system. The goal is to ensure optimal alignment for stable and safe driving.
