Heavy Duty Wheel Alignment System with Headlamp Aiming (HLA)


Fixed audit Headlamp Aiming (HLA) systems stand alone and can be integrated within existing wheel alignment machine, pneumatic centering platform or other centering system.

The heavy duty 3D wheel alignment system was developed by Fori Automation for a facility to accommodate the heavy truck loads and 110” wheelbase ranges of various truck models. The equipment was developed to improve the wear capability of machine load components such as the floating plates and sliding access plates for accommodating  the high throughput of the heavy duty truck models. Additionally, telescoping machine covers were provided to accommodate the long wheelbase adjustment range of 120-210”. The machine included other special features for measuring and tracking underbody points with laser displacement modules during the truck’s suspension adjustment cycle. The machine also performed audit checks for caster measurement using the caster sweep audit process. For HLA an above floor gantry system was provided with Y and Z servo motor positioning and the latest high resolution camera box for improving the HLA resolution and accuracy required by the latest IIHS standards.
