Air
tool balancers provide a safer and more organized workplace by eliminating
the need for an air supply hose and a
separate cable balancer. Air Tool Balancers are available with either 1/4
ID (Model ATB) or 3/8 ID (Model THB)
both with braided urethane hose. Casings are made of durable, lightweight,
high impact ABS resin. |

We offer a
special kit* for the THB and ATB series balancers that allows air tools
with bottom air inlets to hang right-
side up. The kit has a fixture, a cable, and air line joint, plus an additional
13 inches of hose travel. The Air Tool |

Features
and Benefits |
|
|
ENDO
Spring Balancers are a valuable addition to
your assembly line. They support heavy tools with
cable tension equal to the weight of the suspended
tools, which makes them seem virtually "weightless".
As the tool is repositioned the balancer extends or
retracts the support cable to follow the tool's movements.
Constant tension on the cable is accomplished with a
spring motor and a tapered drum. The assembler has
the flexibility to reposition the tool, while experiencing
comfortable operation and less fatigue. Similar to a
Balancer is the Retractor, which does not have a tapered
drum. The tension on the cable increases as the cable is
extended |

Advantages
of Using an ENDO Spring Balancer: |
|
Suspend tools in assembly lines or other work areas
Help the assembler with repetitive tasks such as
installing fasteners: screws, nuts, bolts, etc.
Hold fixtures, tools, welding guns, and similar
equipment
Improves efficiency and diminishes worker fatigue
Stabilizes tool positioning and contributes to work
accuracy
Contributes to a safer working environment
Keeps fixtures, tools, and welding guns off of the floor
and clean.
Eliminates the need to separately power the balancer |

Application
Guidelines |
Size the balancer to carry the total weight to be balanced - tool plus all
accessories - and stroke (maximum to
minimum height) required.
Size to the upper end of the capacity range of the balancer when
possible.
Always attach secondary support cable(s) to the eyelet provided for
additional safety.
Balancers are normally hung vertically and the rope is pulled out
vertically. To prevent the rope from wearing on the
guide, the rope should not be pulled out at an angle to the
balancer body. The balancer can also be mounted
horizontally, however a pulley system must be employed to guide
the rope straight out of the balancer then down to
the tool. Again, care must be taken to prevent the rope from
wearing on the guide. A trolley and rail system can be
used to help the balancer adjust to changing angles.
If multiple balancers are used in close together, install them at
staggered heights to keep them from hitting each other
The spring tension is factory preset to the mid-range of the rated
capacity. To adjust the tension turn the worm gear
or spindle clockwise to increase the tension and counterclockwise
to decrease the tension. |

Cushions protect the body of the balancer if they are placed so close together
that they might collide into one another. |
