Mounting

The Single/Dual Bead Mounter is integral to Dominion's tire and wheel system or can be provided as a stand-alone station for simple integration into our customer's process.

The mounter is capable of handling seven independent mounting settings with a tire and wheel diameter variable of seven inches.

The mounter is capable of two different mounting processes. Process selection is completed automatically (requires broadcast) allowing for a process change between individual cycles.

Dual Bead Mounting Process - This process is generally used on tire and wheel assemblies that have an aspect ratio of greater than 55 series. In this process, both tire beads are mounted to the wheel in a single rotation of the mounter head.

Single Bead Mounting Process - This process is generally used on tire and wheel assemblies that have an aspect ratio of 55 series or less (low profile tire). In this process, each bead is mounted separately requiring two (2) passes of the mounter head to complete the assembly.
