Abstract: A balancing machine with a clamping device for mounting a vehicle wheel on a balancing machine shaft. The clamping device has a mounting flange (7) with multiple recesses (13) for receiving at least one centering pin (8). To reduce centering errors and/or balancing errors because of play between the centering pin (8) and the mounting flange (7), e.g., due to manufacturing tolerances or wear, the centering pin has an elastically deformable circumference (21) which in its operating position is in contact with a wall surface (25) of the mounting flange (7) bounding the recess (13). The circumference (21) can be either hydraulically or mechanically deformable. In addition, the invention also relates to a balancing machine having a mounting flange (7) having a central opening for axial guidance on a shaft.
