Hunter SmartWeight® Elite Wheel Balancer – SWE00

The Hunter SmartWeight® Elite SWE00 is a touchscreen wheel balancer built for speed and accuracy. Its patented vision system and SmartWeight® technology enter wheel dimensions automatically, check centering on every spin, and diagnose rim runout. The workflow is simple: mount, spin, balance, remove. It is designed and built in the USA by Hunter Engineering Company.

Patented vision system

Lowering the hood is all it takes for no-touch measurement. The vision system scans the wheel and builds a 3D model with no manual input. It automatically:

  • Measures wheel dimensions and finds weight plane locations
  • Selects clip or tape weight mode
  • Measures rim runout and calculates a ForceMatch® solution
  • Creates a three-dimensional model of the rim
  • Finds spoke locations so tape weights can be hidden behind spokes
  • Enables more single-weight solutions

Automatic measurement removes manual dimension entry and runout measurement, which saves time and reduces operator error.

Automatic CenteringCheck®

Miscentering is the leading cause of improper balancing and customer comebacks. Automatic CenteringCheck® monitors centering on every spin and alerts the technician to possible problems.

Rim condition measurement

The SmartWeight® Elite measures runout with every spin to find bent and damaged rims.

SmartWeight® balancing technology

  • Finds single-weight solutions up to 60% of the time, compared with traditional two-weight methods
  • Reduces weight usage by up to 35%, according to Hunter
  • Delivers balance results from a single quick spin
  • Shows labor savings in minutes, hours, and dollars with every spin
  • Places smaller, less visible weights on the inside of the wheel when possible
  • Handles flanged and flangeless, plastic clad, colored, wide, and run-flat wheels

Touchscreen interface

  • TruWeight™ weight selection uses the 3D-scanned wheel to show exactly where weights go
  • Touch-to-position: touching a weight value rotates the wheel to that weight location
  • One-touch rim dimensions and cutaway graphics that show the weight mode
  • Single-weight solution toggle when applicable
  • On-board training videos and on-the-fly language switching

Calibration, data, and support

  • Patented eCal auto-calibration keeps the balancer accurate without technician input. Hunter suggests periodic manual calibration.
  • TPMSpecs® is an on-board vehicle database.
  • HunterNet® 2 provides real-time data on usage, weight savings, revenue, and technician performance.
  • Free on-site training is included with the purchase of any Hunter balancer.
  • Hunter's 3-year warranty: three years on parts, six months on labor.
  • Designed and built in the USA.
