Retrofit examples: 
Click on hi-lited words

Hines 
Gary Ledford in Waco Tx traded in his 25 year old Pro-Bal machine
for this refurbished 22 year old machine - the new electronics
on this old machine made it come to life!

Winona 
Mike Lewis in Willets, Ca upgraded this basically good 
15 year old machine with new electronics - now it is a great machine!

Pro-Bal Automotive 
DC Auto Electric in Houlton, Me upgraded this 20 year old machine
with new electronics. The original system was giving
erratic results  - it is now trouble free!

PB1000 Slideshow  
This is a slideshow of a refurbished PB1000
Pro-Bal with an electronics upgrade sold to 
Green County Machine in Wisconsin

Pro-Bal Industrial 
Duratech Industries bought a new 3,500 lb capacity
12 foot long machine and upgraded an 1990 model
2,500 pound machine with new electronics. They balance
heavy ag rotors with moving parts on them - a tricky piece. 

Pro-Bal Industrial 
Oxbo Intn'l in Clear Lake Wi upgraded the electronics on this 
 2,500 lb capacity - large diameter - extended length 
hard bearing machine. The operator was very impressed
With the speed and simplicity of the new system.
Check out the odd design of this part!

Pro-Bal Single Column Industrial 
Watch Video!

American Coolaire uses a special design single-
column machine in production to balance big fans for
chicken houses and other industrial uses.
T&S had to design a non-contact photo-eye system
special application electronic system for this machine.
This was a complicated project but now is a 
6 second spin machine!
It was worth the effort!

Pro-Bal Diesel Machine
Leon Rutt bought his Pro-Bal PB1000 machine new in
1989. He has balanced many diesel cranks on this machine. The
original electronics would not handle this 1,800 lb 8 foot
3516 Cat Diesel crank on this 5 foot long 1000 lb capacity
hard bearing machine. The new electronics solved this problem.

1962 model Stewart Warner Soft Bearing Machine
Ross Grant picked up his new Stewart Warner machine in 1962. He was
the first in the Lancaster, Pa area to offer balancing service. The picture 
shows an 8 HP Briggs crank being balanced with the new electronics. 
He now has the fastest balancer in the area. 

1955 Model Stewart Warner Soft Bearing Machine
Wayne Calvert picked up his new machine
in Colorado Springs in 1955. This was the first
machine in the North Texas area. It took 15 minutes to install
the new electronics and 30 minutes to get Wayne's son Randy familiar 
with the software.


T&S can repair and/or upgrade your machine
