Live At SEMA: Hennessy Shows Coats Vero Series V200 Wheel Balancer

Hennessy Industries introduced the Coats Vero Series V200 Wheel Balancer at this year’s SEMA Show/Global Tire Expo. The V200 focuses on superior design, ease of use and a thorough operating cycle to help tire dealers deliver a better balance the first time, every time, according to the company.

“With the V200, we insisted on high levels of accuracy rather than give our users an “OK” balance that risks a customer comeback,” said Kevin Keefe, Hennessy Industries vice president of marketing. “Vero literally translates to ‘the truth’ – we’re arming tire dealers with the true information they need to minimize residual imbalance in order to reduce comebacks and get a better balance the first time.”

The V200 features the next generation of Coats Direct Drive technology, which combines the motor and spindle into a single, pre-balanced assembly that stays accurate for years and never needs to be recalibrated to zero, the maker said. 

The V200’s Laser Guided Weight Placement system pinpoints the exact weight location, both radially and axially, minimizing residual imbalances, while its touchscreen offers a “No Touch” interface that helps technicians perform 85% of wheel balances without ever touching the screen, according to the company.

Show participants can enter for a chance to win a Vero Series V200 Wheel Balancer at the Hennessy booth (#43167) or register online at www.coatsreveal.com. Winners will be notified Dec. 15 via email.
