Wheel Service Equipment That Every Service Center and Garage Needs

wheel service equipment every garage needs

Ensuring your customers have a safe vehicle means investing in high-quality garage wheel service equipment. The right wheel service tools help extend tire life and gas mileage while reducing wear and tear on your customers’ cars. If you want to maximize customer satisfaction and the efficiency of your shop, you need the right wheel service equipment.

Tire Changer

Tire-changing machines help make removing and replacing tires more efficient in your mechanic shop. Tire changers come in a range of options, from high-performance to space-saving. Car wheels are under constant stress, so they need regular maintenance to prevent uneven wear and damage. A tire changer allows you to handle different tire sizes without strain.

Investing in a quality tire changer for your garage allows your operation to streamline tire-related services, saving time and effort. Look for an option that fits the tire size you most often work with. In addition, evaluate your shop’s volume — the more volume you see, the more your tire rotation machine will need to handle. While higher-volume options are more expensive, they’re worth it if you need the most efficient equipment possible. With the right tire changer, your shop can experience greater efficiency and a smoother workflow.

CEMB-USA carries several tire changer models to ensure you get the right fit for the job. The high-performance SM1100 combines a leverless mount head with an articulating swing arm. If you’re looking for a smaller model, the SM825EVOAIR swing arm tire changer gives you a compact machine with a mounting head, two-stage inflation and tabletop clamping. Enjoy maximum efficiency in a compact space for a roomier workstation.

Wheel Balancer

Wheel balancers help balance the wheels for a smooth, vibration-free ride. Without a tire balancing machine, you’ll have to spend more time and energy performing the balancing yourself. Getting a precise balancer allows tires to perform better, last longer and improve the driving experience.

CEMB-USA offers several wheel balancers so you can get maximum efficiency and performance. The ER100GT HubMatch® automatic RFV diagnostic balancer delivers advanced diagnostic capabilities, allowing you to detect dozens of wheel issues. The EZ10 wheel balancer is for garages with limited space — it features 3D wheel measurement and virtual sonar to give you everything you need in a wheel balancer without the equipment taking over your shop. Explore dynamic, performance, space-saving and motorcycle options to ensure you get the right wheel balancer for the job.

Alignment Machine

This equipment lets your shop tailor the alignment process to your preferences. With accurate measurements, efficient adjustment capabilities and user-friendly interfaces, you can ensure wheels are aligned perfectly with minimal effort. Proper alignment is essential for longer tire life and fuel efficiency for your clients.

The touchless Argos line offers a contact-free alignment process, eliminating the wheel clamps and taking only 5 seconds to complete the alignment readings. For those prioritizing high performance, the DWA3500 aligner comes with intuitive software and works with a range of vehicles. Investing in industry-leading tools from CEMB-USA allows you to deliver the best service, making customers happier and improving your reputation.

Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment equipment performs almost the same job as an alignment lift but without the specialized focus. Alignment lifts provide easier access to rear-axle adjustments, but they are more expensive upfront. Every shop needs alignment equipment — tire aligners allow you to perform alignments efficiently without the hefty investment of a specialty lift.

Wheel alignment tools allow you to identify alignment issues and correct them, keeping drivers safe on the road. With reliable wheel alignment equipment, you can help customers optimize their vehicle performance.

Car Lift

Car lifts are an essential piece of garage owner equipment, giving you direct access to the undercarriage without having to roll underneath. Car lifts come with user-friendly controls and durable construction, making them safe and efficient for repairing and maintaining cars. Investing in a quality car lift can help reduce physical strain for your team while making it easier than ever to get the job done.

Oil Extractor

Oil extractors drain fluids and engine oil from vehicles so new oil can get put in. Every customer needs regular oil changes to keep their vehicle in top condition, and oil extractors make the job easier for your mechanics.

This equipment is designed to remove oil efficiently and without making a mess. Oil extractors are compact and feature easy-to-use controls, keeping your shop clean while streamlining the oil change process.

Tire Inflation Systems

Your customers require even tire pressure to ensure driving safety, extend tire life and optimize fuel efficiency. Tire inflation systems allow shops to deliver optimal tire pressure services for overall vehicle health and safety. These systems work efficiently to inflate tires to your standards and precise manufacturer requirements. With intuitive operation and accurate readings, you’ll get safe, fast results.

How to Find the Right Wheel Service Equipment for Your Garage?

High-quality wheel service equipment helps your garage optimize day-to-day efficiency and deliver reliable services. You’ll need to identify your shop’s requirements so you can find the right tools for the job. Use these factors to determine the equipment you need:

  • Vehicles: Take a look at the type of vehicles and the volume your shop sees regularly. You want equipment that fits the vehicles you service and can keep up with the number of cars and trucks you work on each day. If you offer a range of wheel-related services, your equipment should be able to meet this demand.
  • User-friendliness: Automotive service centers are usually fast-paced environments. Choosing tools with intuitive controls and straightforward operation lets you minimize training time and enhance productivity.
  • Reliability: Look for reputable brands with a proven track record for reliability and quality. Read reviews from other service centers to get a sense of how a piece of equipment performs. You may want to prioritize features like precision, quick operation and durability to ensure the equipment can handle the job.
  • Garage space: How much garage space do you have? If you’re working in a smaller shop, you may want compact, versatile equipment to save space. Larger service centers may benefit from high-capacity tools since there is more available space.
  • Benefits: You’ll want to weigh a piece of equipment’s long-term benefits with its cost. Quality wheel service equipment might require a higher initial investment, but it’s often worth it to improve customer satisfaction, reduce downtime and support a better reputation.
