CONWAY, AR -- Snap-On Equipment's John Bean BFH 1000 Total Ride Performance System was recently approved for inclusion in the GM Dealer Equipment program. The new agreement is the result of cooperative efforts between General Motors Service Operations and Snap-on Equipment to provide high quality wheel balancing solutions to General Motors Dealerships.

The BFH 1000, which stands for Balance Force Harmonics, uses patented optical imaging to predict if tire and wheel harmonics will interact with suspension harmonics to create vehicle vibrations. According to the company, the BFH 1000 is the industry's first fully automatic, optical, noncontact tire and rim measurement system and also offers patented automatic power clamping.

With three-dimensional data obtained from optical cameras, the BFH 1000 recommends wheel/tire matching solutions, provides precise laser-indicated weight placement (even strategically placing weight(s) behind spokes for optimum appearance), on-screen display of diagnostic data including tire and rim runout, and more.
