- 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 capacitive and eddy-current measurement using combiSENSOR and a measuring roller. The two distance signals determine thickness.
Yes. It requires a known-thickness reference and the capacitive calculation depends on dielectric properties. A material change need not retain calibration.
No. The table separately states operating gap and thickness span. Also match material width and traverse motion.
No. Fixed-track and longitudinal measurement are documented alongside transverse scanning. Choose the mode for the process.
Frame, roller/control cabinet, combiSENSOR, motion/control components, industrial PC and software. Line communication and additional equipment depend on configuration.
