MASTER ALIGNER 4D
Work-station for the automatic measurement of the wheel angles of a vehicle.
A perfect quadrilateral is built around the vehicle. The measuring heads initially positioned in the corners of said quadrilateral move automatically to the front of the wheel targets, when the system is started. After about 7 seconds, the front and rear direct angles are measured and visualized, such as:
- toe-in
- toe-out
- camber
- thrust angle.
The software is developed with �dotNET� technology on Windows VISTA. 3D graphics and data bank with over 60.000 vehicles.
Console with PC, 19� TFT monitor, keyboard, B/W laser printer.
The system does not present functional limits deriving from room lighting and shape or condition of the target/vehicle. A special software checks and updates calibration at every single start of the test.
As many as 8 measurements per second with an accuracy of 0,005� (five thousands of a degree) allow the most accurate and quickest adjustment of the vehicle.
3 different program tests are available, to satisfy the different needs of the customers:
- direct angles
- direct angles + �quick caster�
- direct angles + indirect angles (caster, kingpin)
The following further tests can be added:
- Achermann
- maximum steering
- frame diagnosis
- toe and caster adjustment with steered wheels
The motorised MASTER 4D measuring heads, installed on the lift, run a guide along the platforms. When not in use, the heads position themselves at the far end of the platforms, to facilitate the placement of the targets on the wheels. Simultaneously, a selfchecking procedure is started to constantly grant the utmost measuring precision. The data transmission between lift and onsole is performed by �Bluetooth� Technology.
An innovative system of sensors automatically insures the longitudinal and transversal levelling of the lift at any working height.
The targets installed on the wheels do not include electronic
components to avoid any problems if the targets are dropped. Each target is recognised by means of a bar code, thus allowing installation on any wheel.
The wheel clamps supplied with MASTER 4D are patented and enable the installation of the target on the wheel in a safe and quick way.
The run-out compensation can be avoided thanks to the way the targets are installed and to their self-calibration. The run-out compensation can however be done either �by pushing� or with �free wheels�, according to the car manufacturer prescriptions.
The sturdy 4200 kg capacity scissors lift, grants the utmost planarity. Platform length: 5200mm (optional 4600 mm).
The position of front plates and rear tables allow to operate on vehicle with a wheel base between 1800 mm and 4400 mm.
Front turn plates with electronic measurement of the steering angle. Sliding tables with locking in central position and diagonal/transversal movements in both directions.
