Schmitt Hofmann Hk5000 Hydrokompenser Balancer Upgrade

Due to popular demand, SBS India is pleased to present a complete electronic upgrade kit for the Hofmann Hydrokompenser HK-4410 and HK-5000 grinding wheel balancer controllers. The Hydrokompenser is one of the original grinding wheel balancers, and has been around for almost 30 years with hundreds still in operation worldwide. The Hydrokompenser uses the grinding machine coolant as a balancing mass to compensate forimbalance in the grinding wheel and spindle assembly. A filtered supply of coolant is injected into an annular ring container mounted either inside the grinding wheel arbour or on the flange of the wheel arbour. The mass of the coolant held in the container counter acts the imbalance in the wheel assembly. This is done as the wheel is rotating at normal grinding speed ensuring optimum balance of the whole assembly is quickly achieved. The original electronic controller used to drive the balancer was the HK4410, which was superseded by the HK5000. The Hydrokompenser is still a popular system with many grinding machine OEMs and end users.The upgrade is ‘Plug-and-Play’,installing in minutes, and features SBS’s latest SB-5500 series modular electronic controller.
