- 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
Two laser sensors face opposite sides of the material on a common frame. The integrated evaluation unit calculates thickness from the distance measurements.
The manual specifies non-contact thickness measurement of nontransparent strips and plates. This is a two-sided arrangement; it does not establish suitability for one-sided transparent-layer measurement.
Yes. The described system uses two opposing laser sensors on a shared frame. Allow space for the frame and material movement.
No. It is calculated from both distances and the frame reference geometry. One surface-distance measurement alone does not determine moving-material thickness.
Specify minimum/maximum thickness, material, two-sided access and part movement. Both surfaces must stay within their corresponding sensor ranges.
