Froude Hofmann Ltd

Froude Hofmann designs and manufactures different types of Wheel Alignment Machines. These machines provide the means to measure toe-, camber- and caster-angles of all four vehicle wheels and the optimum data for the final adjustment of the wheel angles. The modular machines are available with two different measuring heads, contacting rollers on the tyre sidewall or non-contacting lasers which view the tyre sidewall. The non-contact measurement machines can be equipped with one of two laser manufacturer’s (PERCEPTRON and VISICON) light section probes. The wheel alignment machines are very robust, high accuracy, devices with angle measuring accuracies of ± one minute. Fibre optic cables, with the VISICON laser cameras, provide interference-free data transfer from the laser sensors to the computer operating system that carries out data analysis and displays information. All Machines have wheel drive rollers with a floating feature to ease the wheel adjustment process. Main Features Non-contact measurement for toe, camber, caster, dogtrack and ride height Adjustment of vehicle specific systems like S-Point, load controlled brake etc. Measuring of different tyre- and rim sizes at only one Wheel Alignment Machine High accuracy High reliability Low maintenance
