Snap-on offers compact Hofmann wheel aligner

CONWAY, Ark. — Snap-on Inc. has introduced the Hofmann geoliner 320 Portable Imaging Wheel Aligner for small shops.

"Simple to use and movable so it can go anywhere in the shop, the new Hofmann geoliner 320 is an asset for shops expanding their aligner business," said Adam Brown, product manager for Hofmann. "Because of its compact size and robust design, the Hofmann 320 conducts high quality imaging alignments in shorter bays, making it unlike anything else available on the market today."

The company said the new design enables a high quality alignment system to be added in bays that previously couldn't accommodate conventional imaging alignment systems. The equipment requires a minimal footprint for usage.

There is no lifting, head-charging, head-leveling or adaptors so the service technician only needs to place the machine on the lift and it is ready to align, the company said.

The enhanced aligner software features a notification system that provides critical information without slowing down the alignment process and an adaptive user interface that delivers instant access to productivity tools and assistance whenever required, Snap-on said.

The 320 is repairable on site and automatic software and specification updates can be made remotely.
