Uniformity Testing
In 2001 Akron Special Machinery (ASM) produced and installed the X100, the first tire uniformity machine to make use of the newly developed “X-FRAME” technology. This groundbreaking design distributes the forces of the machine evenly throughout its frame maintaining a more ridged
frame, faster cycle times and more accurate testing results. Building on the success of the X100, ASM expanded the X-Series to include the CX111 and X150 uniformity machines, with customizable testing capabilities, all taking advantage of the “X-FRAME” technology.
