The new top of the range HawkEye Elite TD is set to take the alignment industry by storm, with innovations delivering unrivalled speed, precision and profitability.
The most striking and radical developments over other HawkEye models is a totally new design of integrated wheel clamp and target, which enables the aligner to deliver measurement results in record-breaking time of just 90 seconds.
HawkEye Elite TD Imaging Sensors
The feature of the new Elite TD system is the revolutionary patented integrated adaptor and target design, replacing the previous metal wheel clamp and separate target unit. These work in combination with newly redesigned Hunter’s high res digital cameras, specialist software to calculate completely accurate compensated readings, regardless of how the clamp is positioned on the wheel.
The integrated targets are firmly fixed to the face of the wheel using QuickGrip™ adaptors which feature spring-loaded arms to grip the tyre, thus avoids any metal-to-metal contact and potential rim damage, plus are super quick to attach. Made from a tough polymer material to withstand tough workshop life and is nearly 50 percent lighter in weight than previous target and clamp assembly. The new design also features a much narrower profile, making it easier to use in restricted or cramped bays.
Hunter has also certainly rewritten the compensation rule book with their patented ‘QuickComp™’. The new Hunter HawkEye Elite TD and ‘QuickComp™’ allows users to perform rolling compensation, which is essential to take account of any wheel rim runout/mounting error, with just one simple roll forward!
