Abstract
Apparatus for balancing a rotor such as an automobile tire, having a locally fixed axle rigidly coupled with respect to a driving motor and a hub rotatably mounted about the fixed axle. The rotatable hub is driven by the motor and the rotor to be balanced is clamped to the hub by a flanged on clamp or a plate having one or more pins for engaging wheel spokes. Data receivers engage the locally fixed axle for producing signals which indicate rotor unbalance.
