Alignment Lifts: Technology and Selection for Chassis Measurement
Alignment lifts are vehicle lifts specially developed for wheel alignment. Unlike standard lifts, they feature integrated turntables at the front wheels and sliding plates at the rear wheels, which allow the vehicle to be measured in its natural suspension position – without the suspension being affected by how it is supported.
What distinguishes an alignment lift from a standard lift?
With standard lifts, the vehicle is raised at the sill points – the vehicle's weight rests on the support arms, not on the wheels. This influences the suspension geometry and can lead to inaccurate measurement results. Alignment lifts raise the vehicle so that the wheels are loaded in their natural driving position – turntables allow free wheel orientation, sliding plates compensate for lateral forces when steering.
What should I look for when buying an alignment lift?
Key factors are: sufficient load capacity for the heaviest vehicles in the workshop, turntables and sliding plates with adequate free movement, compatibility with your alignment system (many measuring systems have specific requirements for the lift), and sufficient lift height for comfortable adjustment work on the chassis. We are happy to advise you on the optimal combination of lift and measuring system.
