Balco i-Lign 2 8CCD Wheel Alignment System

Introducing i-Lign 2 – representing the new era for CCD Wheel Alignment. CCD Wheel Alignment has come a long way since its inception. The big, cumbersome cabinets of the past have been replaced by more compact and convenient designs. Rim Clamps have become lighter and faster, and PC’s are set to be displaced by user-friendly tablets.
And nothing epitomises that progress more than the Balco i-Lign 2.
Manufactured 100% in Italy, and designed by arguably the best alignment ‘boffins’ in the industry, it is no coincidence that the market is shifting to i-Lign 2 as their ‘go-to’ alignment system.
A modern, durable and portable tablet allows the operator to move around the vehicle with all of the necessary data to hand, and the compact, sturdy trolley mounted on rubberised wheels (for bumpy workshop floors!) brings a much more realistic portability when compared to big, clumsy cabinets.
Bluetooth connectivity ensure smooth, speedy transmission of data between the heads, which are mounted on luxury, alloy rim friendly 3-point clamps, and the 8 sensor system (as opposed to the more common 6 sensor) ensures all essential angles are catered for.
Vehicle Data collection in database is simple and quick, because the i-Lign 2 comes with a token system which allows the operator to simply enter the registration number of the vehicle and all data is loaded up on screen immediately. Tokens are supplied with the aligner and, when the day comes that you have used up your 200 complimentary ‘look ups’, your aligner will have earned you (using an industry average charge of £80 per alignment) circa £16,000 in revenue! At this point, you can either continue to purchase tokens or simply revert to entering the vehicle make and model. There is no downside, but there is a huge upside to using the token registration ‘lookup’ system.
Printouts can be managed by sending the data directly to a remote printer, even if it is located in the office, and automatic charging upon mounting the heads into the docking station eliminates old-fashioned cables or, even worse, downtime through lost charge.
Another great feature of the i-Lign 2 is the fact that it can be used on a 2 Post lift (adaptors included), which is a great feature for those who don’t have the room for an alignment lift, or for working a multi-bay arrangement and utilising a 2 post lift if your usual 4 poster is in use.
The ‘icing on the cake’ has to be the unique Teq-link feature. Teq-Link is an online management system that allows you to track every alignment job you do. You can monitor this daily, weekly monthly and yearly to see how well your workshop is performing when it comes to alignment. This kind of feature is useful to anyone who has invested in this level of equipment, but for larger companies who operate multiple sites, setting targets and evaluating ROI data, this feature is an absolute Godsend. Teq-Link even gives you your average alignment time, so the amount of chargeable time for each job can be fully monitored.
To provide an example of how Teq-Link can help manage time, vehicles with varying levels of adjustability can be accurately assessed for the time involved, allowing you to manage the charge applied relative to the vehicle. Teq-link will automatically keep track of how long each job has taken. Every job is stored safely and can be referred to at any time; go back years if you need to if you want to find a printout from a historic job on a customers car! These reports can be sent directly from teq-link via email to any customer that requires it. Teq-Link is supplied as standard with i-Lign 2.
Backed up by a comforting 2 year warranty, all i-Lign installations come with comprehensive training to ensure you get the best from your investment.
