Experts in this sector will know that time is of the essence in tyre service; it is a lucrative business for all workshops and the new tyre changers and wheel balancers from Bosch offer a safe, versatile and timesaving operation.


Wheel balancing equipment
The new WBE 4200 and WBE 4400 semi-automatic wheel balancers from Bosch offer garages and workshops a simple, high-precision and easy-to-use value alternative in the Bosch wheel balancing range, providing the user with clear digital read-outs for passenger cars, light commercial vehicles and motorcycles with a new ergonomic design, allowing for better access to the inside of the wheel and an improved working position.

The high quality wheel balancers each have a measuring time of just eight seconds, thanks to Bosch’s EASYFIX arm with automatic measurement of the diameter and distance of the wheel.

The ALUDATA weight sticking system and the optional accessory of the new external arm for a more accurate measurement of the wheel width, reduce the weight of the machines and have been designed to produce fewer problems in the mechanical movements.
 
The WBE 4400 incorporates all of the features of the WBE 4200 but with the added convenience and accuracy of a high-quality 19” TFT LCD-monitor, offering a High Resolution graphic display, providing added usability and a fast measuring time. The double LED colour displays gives the user accurate readouts that are legible even in poor lighting conditions.

Tyre changing equipment (TCE)
The new TCE 4450 joins the TCE 4420 in Bosch’s current TCE range. The Bosch TCE range is now capable of servicing over 90% of the Irish car population due to the 26” turntable and the raising column of the TCE 4450, allows for use with wider rims of up to 14”.

The new TCE 4450 from Bosch is a fully automatic tyre changer with a column that tilts and rises, which has been designed by industry experts to cater for workshops that handle wider tyres with a diameter of up to 26”.  

The pedal-controlled two-speed, two-directional tyre changer equipment is ideal for use on lower profile, wider rims.

Also featuring the Bosch exclusive sliding arm with air blocking device, the TCE 4450 provides workshops with up-to-date tyre changing equipment built to the highest standard.

The TCE 4450 can handle a clamping inside of 10” to 26” and clamping outside of 12” to 28”, with a maximum wheel diameter of 1000 mm, and a wheel width of 3” to 14”.
