    CONWAY, Ark. — Snap-on Inc. has unveiled the John Bean V2100 Wheel Alignment System, featuring productivity-enhancing technology and more accurate real-time measurements.

    "Utilizing advanced imaging technology, our new John Bean V2100 reduces setup and measurement times and provides more accurate alignments," said Adam Brown, product manager for John Bean.

    "With several efficiency enhancing features exclusive to the V2100, this new John Bean aligner is unlike others on the market today. Equipped with the latest software, the V2100 will deliver readings in a matter of minutes."

    The wheel aligner has an optional VIN scanner that allows the user to have immediate access to vehicle history and starts the alignment process automatically.

    The V2100 also features a next-generation user interface; a graphic display; video speed cameras that monitor the alignment; and a compensation warning system that detects common environmental conditions and vehicle problems that could result in maladjustment.

    The system also includes two patented features: the Vehicle Orientation Directional Indicator that guides the technician through the measuring process; and the EZ-TOE that turns the front wheel and helps access difficult adjustment points during the alignment while displaying centered toe readings.
