Why Haweka ProClamps
Keeping ahead of the competition in today’s competitive environment is very demanding. Your competitor is offering similar services to you, and pressure is put on margins. When you are making a decision to invest in new capital equipment it must either make you money or save you time. It is as simple as that!
HAWEKA’S new ProClamp manages to both make you additional income and save you vast amounts of time. It is a first in its field and brings you a win-win situation for your workshop.
Before we go into details, let’s look at the current set-up of an alignment job:
- Drive the vehicle into the alignment bay.
- Adjust tyre pressure.
- Attach the four wheel clamps with the sensors.
- Lift front axle, perform run-out compensation on the left & on the right wheel
- Lift rear axle, perform run-out compensation on the left & on the right wheel.
- After adding weight to the vehicle as per manufacturers recommendations, attempt to settle the vehicle by bouncing on each corner of the vehicle.
- Perform the 10 degree or 20 degree caster sweep.
- See readings on the screen/display.
If a technician is fast he can complete the above eight points in from 11 to 19 minutes. However this just tells you the condition of the vehicle, you have not yet adjusted a single angle. With the HAWEKA ProClamp the complete time to get from Step 1 to Step 8 takes less than five minutes, saving over 65% of the time previously needed. That’s one or two more alignment jobs – per bay – per day – every day.How does HAWEKA do it?
With the Pro Clamp in most cases it is not necessary to jack up the car and perform the run-out compensation. This is where the majority of time is saved. HAWEKA can achieve this by using a highly accurate three point clamp design that is attached to the wheel via the tyre. The Pro Clamp’s axle is exactly 90 degrees to the three points, and therefore is sitting on the wheel in the ‘as driven position’.
The ProClamp is extremely rigid and does not suffer from the same distortion all the other clamps suffer from as they are tightened to the wheel. In addition, the ProClamp has a built-in patented system which ensures the clamp’s feet sit ‘square’ to the wheel at all times. You don’t believe it? Try them yourself – you will be amazed!
What does ‘as driven’ mean?
‘As driven’ means that we have to align the vehicle as if it was driven down the road. The biggest error introduced into an alignment job is during the run-out compensation. As most vehicles today have an independent suspension, the wheel drops when jacked up, and thus the camber changes and the toe setting ‘tucks’ either in or out. When the vehicle is lowered back down, it is virtually impossible to re-settle the vehicle without driving several miles down the road. Now the readings you measure are incorrect, and the vehicle is adjusted according to the ‘non driven position’
This is both technically incorrect, and can cause major tyre wear, the very thing the alignment job is trying to solve!!!!
Moreover it can be very frustrating to the technicians. Commonly the vehicle is aligned and the customer returns complaining that the steering wheel is not centered, or the vehicle pulls to one side. With the original clamps this can not be avoided because of the jacking procedure – only the ProClamp can ensure the alignment job is perfectly accurate and the car running straight with the steering wheel centered – the first time around.
Which vehicle Manufacturers align in the ‘as driven position’?In the factory, just about all vehicles are aligned in the ‘as driven position’! It is only right to do the same thing in the workshop (Could you imagine the time it would take a large vehicle manufacturer to do the run-out compensation on every single vehicle?)
Several vehicle manufacturers have gone one step further, and no longer allow their dealers to align in any way other than ‘as driven’.
Who are these vehicle manufacturers?
1. Porsche.
2. BMW.
3. Mercedes Benz
4. Volkswagen.
5. Audi
What other advantages does the Pro Clamp have?
- Fits all wheels from 12” to 24” NEW UPGRADE KIT extends the range to 26”
- Easy mounting of the spring loaded foot to ‘soft line’ alloy wheels that have no outer rim lip, traditional clamps can’t they scratch/damage the rim. The new spring loaded foot fits rims with convex lip.
- Avoids the need to lift vehicle and perform run-out compensation, saving about 10 minutes per vehicle, per alignment.
- (Compensation must only be carried out if the wheel is visibly bent or buckled).
- Fits all brands of wheel alignment machines, should you change your machine ProClamp can be retrofitted at low cost.
- Measuring head and ‘ProClamp’ can be permanently attached to take advantage of even greater time savings.
- Changeable feet – should a new design rim appear in the future, just a new set of feet is necessary.
- The clamp is attached via the tyre securely; costly damage from dropped measuring heads is a thing of the past.
