Posted: 22:10 - 30 Nov 2017 Post subject: The difference between semi and fully automatic tyre machine |
|
|
Hi all.
I'm looking at investing a tyre machine for the workshop and wanted to know what's the difference between the semi and full auto. I have used a tyre machine before but never really understood all the different types of machines you can buy.

one is fully automatic, one is a little bit automatic and may require some additional input ____________________ Current : '08 Yamaha FZ1s

The semi automatic machine will have a manually positioned pneumatically powered bead breaker, the Tyre slide also needs to be positioned manually on to the rim. This type is the usual method for motorcycle tyres as i believe the full automatic system only works on car tyres?
The Automatic is more of a cnc or robotic tyre changer, you put the wheel on it punch in the wheel dimensions and hit go, it breaks the bead and removes the tyre in 1 action. You put the new tyre over the wheel hit go again and it does the rest.
Automatics can be operated by virtually anybody with little training, semi-autos need abit of skill and mechanical sympathy.
Like i said though due to the massive range of rim sizes, depths and even materials i dont "think" you can get full autos for motorcycles.... well at least i didn't see one when i was in the trade. ____________________ Bikes owned :- 2001 nsr125, 1999 zx6r, 2006 yzf-r1, 2009 xmax 250, 2012 yzf-r1, 2015 MT-07
