Laura Ford in Sullivan, MO uses Hunter’s AutoComp Elite® On-Car Brake Lathe to help service a wide variety of vehicles at their dealership. They’ve tried other on-car lathes in the past, but chose the ACE Lathe for easier setup, faster automatic compensation, faster cutting, and its superior surface finish.
The AutoComp Elite® brake lathe features automatic compensation technology. The patent pending automatic compensation system directly determines the position of the internal plates to maximize speed and accuracy without operator intervention. The result is the fastest, highest quality brake job possible.
An in-depth explination on how Hunter Engineering’s Anti-Chatter Technology (ACT) works on Hunter’s BL Series Bench Lathe and the on-car lathe, AutoComp Elite®. This technology provides better brake rotor surface finish while also allowing the lathe to cut much faster.
This video explores the causes of vehicle brake shudder and explains why resurfacing rotors on the vehicle provides a better, longer lasting brake job.
Base
Includes: Anti-Chatter Technology ACT, 2X faster cuts, 50% more power, variable speed, reverse operation and more.
Standard
Includes: Base model features PLUS tablet interface, Vehicle spec database, BitMinder, Language support, training videos.
Includes: Standard model features PLUS Digi-Cal rotor measurement system which compares rotor thickness to vehicle specifications.
Anti-Chatter Technology changes the spindle speed to keep chatter-inducing vibration from starting
No hazardous bands, clips or silencer belts needed to control vibration
Fixed-speed
Chatter can start when machining rotors at a fixed speed. The same way a moistened finger can make a crystal glass sing. By the time the technician hears the rotor singing, it is already too late; the surface has been ruined.
Oscillating speed
ACT varies the spinning speed to keep chatter inducing vibration from starting. This results in a smoother surface finish.
Hunter’s AutoComp Elite® on-vehicle brake lathe compensates in under 12 seconds, on average, using direct compensation. Other methods may take up to two minutes using wandering compensation.
Automatic Compensation enhances speed and accuracy by calculating the exact position of the compensation plates to eliminate guesswork. Direct compensation exceeds the most stringent OE requirements and can make as many as 5 adjustments in a single revolution.
The Variable-Speed Drive System allows technicians to resurface rotors at the fastest possible speed without sacrificing quality. Variable speed also means the ACE lathe can avoid locking differentials on trucks and performance vehicles.
Cut rotors on vehicles that have high driveline drag with reverse rotation and an industry leading 1.5-hp motor, making trucks and performance vehicles easy tasks. Helping you avoid adding time to the job and the risk of removing drive train components!
