?OBELISK II? TRUING MACHINE

The Obelisk II is a fast, highly user-friendly truing machine with two simultaneously operating nipple keys. The use of modern techniques, such as brushless servo-motors without gearboxes, and digital control, mean that the Obelisk II can be set with great accuracy. With a production speed of 40 to 100 wheels per hour, the Obelisk II is one of the fastest machines of its type.

A new element in the Obelisk II truing machine is a stabiliser module incorporated in the housing of the BMD truing machine. This setup allows an extra operation without extra handling, wheel buffering or logistics.

Simple operation by means of graphical user interface
The graphical user interface (GUI) makes operation virtually intuitive. There is an on-line help manual. Use of computers enables collection of production data over a long period. The data can also be printed directly or transferred to your company procuction system via a network (LAN) connected to the machine. Remote operation and diagnosis by telephone are possible.

Low maintenance
The Obelisk´s brushless servo-motors without gearbox and the digital servo-control guarantee a maintenance-free, accurately controllable drive to the nipple keys, with continuously adjustable torque. This means that the wheel quality can be more accurately supervised, thus substantially increasing the quality. The non-contact system for measuring wheel hop and wobble reduces maintenance even further.
