With automotive maintenance, wheel alignment is a critical service that ensures vehicles drive smoothly and tyres wear evenly. A wheel alignment machine is essential for any garage offering comprehensive vehicle maintenance services. Proper alignment improves vehicle handling, extends tyre life, and increases fuel efficiency, contributing to overall vehicle performance and safety. By ensuring wheels are correctly aligned, garages can enhance customer satisfaction and generate more business. At Equipco, we offer a range of wheel alignment systems designed to meet the needs of any garage. In this post, we explore some of the available products, each tailored for different service requirements and vehicle types.

3D Wheel Alignment Systems

3D wheel alignment systems are the foundation of modern alignment technology, they use precise measurements and three-dimensional imaging to diagnose and adjust the alignment of a vehicle’s wheels. This system is highly accurate and quick, making it ideal for busy garages that handle a high volume of vehicles. Equipco’s Techno Vector TV7 3D wheel alignment system is an example of this, offering advanced features like automatic data entry and number plate recognition to streamline the alignment process.

Techno Vector TV8 Smartlight

For those looking to add cutting-edge technology to their garage, the Techno Vector TV8 Smartlight system is not just convenient but also efficient. As a touchless wheel alignment system, it requires no physical contact with the vehicle, minimising setup time and eliminating the risk of damaging the rims or tyres. This system is perfect for high-end vehicles and those that require delicate handling. Additionally, the Techno Vector TV8 Smartlight system boasts real-time data analysis and remote monitoring capabilities, allowing for swift adjustments and ensuring optimal alignment accuracy, even for the most sophisticated vehicle models.

Commercial Wheel Alignment Systems

Commercial vehicles need more robust solutions due to their size and heavy usage. Commercial wheel alignment systems are designed to handle large vehicles such as trucks and buses. These systems are built for heavy-duty use while providing accurate and reliable results, ensuring commercial fleets operate safely and efficiently. Advanced features like laser-guided alignment and computerised diagnostics enable precise adjustments tailored to the specific needs of commercial vehicles, maximising tyre longevity and fuel efficiency.

Laser Wheel Alignment

Laser wheel alignment is another popular option for mechanics. This method uses laser beams to ensure the precise alignment of wheels. It’s especially useful for quick checks and is favoured in settings where space or resources for more extensive systems might not be available. Laser systems can deliver extremely precise measurements, which is important for optimal vehicle performance and safety. They are also known for their speed and efficiency, allowing mechanics to perform alignments quickly without sacrificing quality. This is beneficial in a busy workshop environment where saving time is important.
