Wheel Alignment With Camera Technology

While the mechanics of a Diesel engine have not changed that much over the years, the technology to ensure longevity, safety and durability of big trucks and buses has moved forward in leaps and bounds. David Lowery of David Lowery Diesel Repairs out of Emerald, decided he needed the best for his clients, so he turned to Levanta and JOSAM for the right solution.

Emerald might be a small town, but we love how David saw a big opportunity! Realising that wheel alignment was not a service offered anywhere in Emerald, David jumped at being the first and only Diesel Repair Workshop in the region to offer commercial, heavy vehicle wheel alignment services, utilising camera technology. 

His new JOSAM Cam-Aligner is designed specifically for commercial vehicles such as trucks, trailers and buses – all of which pass through his town on a regular basis. David can now service more clients quicker, resulting in greater productivity, which is flowing through to his bottom line. Nice one Dave!!

This compact wheel alignment system enables truck and bus workshops, as well as tyre service centres, to offer wheel alignment options quickly and accurately. 

Measurements such as; 

• Toe, Steering Box Position, Camber, Out of Square, Parallelism and Axle Offset 
• Caster, KPI, Toe Out On Turns and Max Turn 

are calculated using patented camera technology with the chassis center line of the vehicle as reference. 

Enabled by the unique rolling method, toe and camber measurements may be taken while the vehicle is in driving position. No lifting of the axles with run-out compensation is required, alternatively the system can also be operated with standard run-out procedure. 

Wireless technology is used for transmitting data between measuring units and the computer. 

The computer software guides the user through the measuring process and prints out measurement reports of values, before and after alignment.

If you want to add this revenue raising product to your client offerings, all you need to do is call Levanta today on 1300 577 541.
