- 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
No. The page specifies Class 00 but Class 0.5 for 500 kN. Check the model and calibration certificate.
The manufacturer supports whole-chain calibration, including force-application accessories and acquisition electronics, to minimize system measurement uncertainty.
Four measurement points, spaced 90° apart, provide bending-moment compensation.
Yes. Z4A supports both with suitable force-application accessories and calibration.
Its spring element is made in one piece, supporting low hysteresis and good reproducibility in reference measurements. This does not remove the need for suitable force-introduction accessories or measurement-chain calibration.
