His philosophy led to the development of many patented designs, which are now industry standards. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery… we would just like to say thank you to our competitors.
The Hines Difference
• Hard suspension gives permanent calibration. • Hines’ runout sensors read the true centerline, not the irregular tube surface. • The Hines computer tells you the exact amount and location of unbalance. • The Hines balancer takes all the driveshaft components into consideration. • The Four-jaw chucks eliminate costly changeover time. • Designed and built from the ground up in Ann Arbor, Michigan. • Design your own system with our variety of options.
The computer walks the operator through every step!
