MONOLITH MACHINE DESCRIPTION Wheel balancer MONOLITH are designed for balancing of car and motorcycle wheels in a single measurement cycle. Original construction solutions assure safe, simple and comfortable operating of the machine as well as reliability and fast wheel balancing.
MONOLITH INSTALLATION The following operations can be carried out by persons who have been trained in machine servicing and operating. Follow the instructions below carefully in order to prevent machine’s damage or injury risk. Make sure that no persons are in the working area.
MONOLITH WORKING AREA REQUIREMENTS The dimensions of the balancer determine its working area. Only trained and authorized persons may be present in this area. The area requirements for the machine, presented on fig.3.1. are 2870x3000 mm. 1 and 2 operators working places.
The initial screen will display the available program options as well as the current date and time. Balancer Monolith is equipped with touch screen, so the program choice action is made by touching the appropriate place on the monitor screen. From the initial screen you can choose the following actions: Fig.
MONOLITH BALANCING To pass to this function touch the rectangle with the unbalance icon and the signed "Balancing". Camera image with the fragment of the wheel placed on the holder will appear on the screen. On the left side of the screen there will be active areas that trigger the appropriate program actions.
MONOLITH MEASUREMENTS The measurement is initiated with the START button. A wheel mounted in the holder begins to rotate and, if compressed air is connected to the machine, the hood automatically closes. When hood is closing the ultrasound sensor measures the distance to the edge of the wheel rim. During acceleration you may indicate on the image of the rotating wheel the points for balancing weights.
MONOLITH PROGRAM 3P – HIDDEN WEIGHT When the inner weight is defined inside the rim and we want to hide it behind the spoke we can split it in two weights which will be placed on both sides in places not visible from the outside (behind the spokes) Fig.
MONOLITH OPTIMIZATION To move to this function choose the rectangle with the optimization icon signed "Optimization". On the screen background the camera image with wheel fragment will be seen. On the left side of the screen there will be active areas and buttons that call up the appropriate program actions. And just like in the measurement of unbalances, we have: clock at the top, START button at the bottom.

MONOLITH After the measurement, the program will display a rim unbalance result. Next, put the tyre on the rim and place the wheel on the balancer, remembering its orientation relativelyto the holder. Now, without entering points, press START and the program will measure whole wheel unbalance.
MONOLITH CALIBRATION Move to calibration screen by selecting the rectangle with the calibration icon signed "Calibration". In this program we can calibrate the machine parameters responsible for the correct imbalance calculation in two ways. Either using a special device (MEL) attached to the machine or with a balanced wheel with a calibration weight attached outside.
MONOLITH SETTINGS From the "Settings" screen you can change language, message volume, unbalance accuracy, check program version, go to service mode with access to internal parameters and functions for testing individual machine’s components. The settings are entered from the initial screen after touching the rectangle "Settings". There are following options: 1.
Page 22
MONOLITH BALANCING Here we define the threshold from which the balancer treats the measurement result as being greater than zero. Defined thresholds are 2g, 5g and 10g. In this options set we also set the rounding of the measurement result: up to 1g or up to 5g.

MONOLITH (5,2) – start measurement loop (4,3) – MEL device parameters setting (inactive for user) SERVICE SCREEN MEASUREMENTS To start the measurement in the service screen first identify at least one point on the wheel rim. The values of x (the point distance from the machine's casing + approx. 30mm) and y (the diameter of the circle indicated by the point in millimeters) will be displayed above the indicated point.
MONOLITH SENSORS TEST After the window WHEEL SENSORS TEST displayed the test is started with START button. The wheel starts to rotate and two values will appear every two revolutions in the window: FILLING and OFFSET. The test is performed cyclically until you select STOP.
