Introducing the toolBalancer 1000: Precision Balancing for Tools Up to 1,000 mm

Share This Post

ZOLLER has added the toolBalancer 1000 to its balancing range. It is built to balance tools up to 1,000 mm in total length, joins the existing toolBalancer models, and is available through ZOLLER UK.

Why Balancing Matters More on Long Tools

An unbalanced tool vibrates, and vibration compromises surface quality and precision. It also puts extra stress on the tool and the machine, which shortens tool and spindle life and pushes up operating costs.

With long overhangs, even the smallest imbalance has a significant effect on production quality. The toolBalancer 1000 was developed specifically for these tools.

What the toolBalancer 1000 Does

The machine uses precise swing measurement to determine the imbalance of a tool assembly, and the software then supports the operator with the corrective action needed. ZOLLER describes the process as quick, precise and reproducible.

At a glance:

  • Balances tools up to 1,000 mm in total length
  • Precise swing measurement for accurate results
  • Intelligent software support for corrective actions
  • Quick and easy operation


The benefits are the ones that come with any well-balanced tool: better machining quality, longer tool and spindle service life, and more stable processes with less scrap, rework and unplanned downtime.

Who It Is For

The toolBalancer 1000 is worth a look if you:

  • Use long tools
  • Have high quality requirements
  • Want to extend tool life
  • Are experiencing vibration or surface finish issues
  • Want to increase process reliability

See It in Action

The quickest way to understand the toolBalancer 1000 is to watch it work. The short video below shows a long tool being balanced from start to finish.
