TRUDI - wheelbuilding machine

TRUDI
The most accurate, user-friendly and efficient solution ever. This sleek tabletop machine combines state-of-the-art computer precision with the skilled hand of a craftsman, making wheel tolling faster, easier and more accurate than ever.

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS:
1. Enter basic wheel details (such as spoke type, number ofspokes, and rim material).
2. Secure the wheel in the stand.
3. The system rotates the wheel to measure dish, lateral andradial information.
4. A tensiometer assesses the tension in each spoke.
5. The system calculates the necessary adjustments for eachspoke nipple.
6. Use the drill, which automatically adjusts each nipple to thecorrect position.
7. The system re-spins the wheel to verify accuracy.
8. In just one cycle, the wheel is precisely tuned to meetspecifications.

Then you perform your de-stressing procedure, ideally using a GRS de-stressing machine.
After 2 (max 3, depending on the spoke) of these rounds, you can do a quick final finetune with the Quick True Mode if desired. And all that without additional tension measurements!
Thus, with Trudi you now have a perfectly straight wheel in a quarter of the normal time.

* Important remarks: 

Machines clearly distiquish from static tools. A machine must always comply to CE, OSHA  (or local equivilant) safety regulations and certifications. This also applies for self-made or self-imported machines for in-company use, though it is a persistant myth amongst wheelbuilders that this would not the case. 
Contact your local safety and health authority to check which standard conformity is mandatory for your situation and location.
