Checking the wheel alignment on heavy-duty vehicles has become faster and easier than ever before with the new John Bean® V6200. This versatile aligner provides precise and accurate alignment readings in as little as four minutes.

“The new John Bean V6200 heavy-duty aligner gives shops more options for alignment jobs as it can be used to align medium and heavy-duty trucks as well as buses, semis and mobile cranes,” said Adam Brown, product manager for John Bean. “Easy to operate, the V6200 can be setup and display readings on a three-axle vehicle in four minutes or a truck and trailer in only nine minutes. Performing wheel alignments on heavy-duty vehicles has never been so quick and easy.”

With the new John Bean V6200, the targets can be mounted to the floor or the wall for faster and easier set-up times. The only devices to be mounted on the vehicle are the wheel clamps and corresponding measuring heads. The all-aluminum wheel clamps are light weight and can be mounted inside or outside the wheel and can be used on a wide variety of wheel types. Operation is also simplified by the user-friendly interface that provides real-time adjustments.

“Shops can increase revenue by utilizing the V6200 for fast, drive-through alignment checks, cutting alignment times in half by simultaneously measuring the left and the right sides of the vehicle with a second operator,” said Brown. “Another advantage of the V6200 is that it causes no space issues because the area used to perform alignments can remain fully operational for other jobs when there is no alignment in process.”
