- Axle Drives With our balancing machines for front and rear axle transmissions, the measured unbalance is corrected by drilling into the drive flanges of the transmissions (welding optional). We support you with our interdisciplinary expertise in the production of front and rear axle transmissions from the initial idea to the design stage through to series production.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions about our products and services
It combines sensor and controller in one housing without an external fiber. Electrical and data connections must still match the interface variant.
It specifies an adjustable 100 Hz to 25 kHz rate. Static and dynamic resolutions have separate conditions and are not uniform at every rate.
It specifies up to five layers. Reflections must be sufficiently separated, with refractive index and minimum thickness matched to the configuration.
No. The 1, 3 and 10 mm spans have separate performance values, with distance linearity distinct from thickness linearity. Select the application row and model column.
Yes. The detailed table specifies sensor-front IP64 and controller IP65. Consider both sections when designing for the environment.
