Thanks to its fully automated processes, it allows technicians to effortlessly change tyres in exactly the same way, taking the same amount of time, every time, regardless of tyre size or type, helping to minimise damage to tyres, rims and TPMS sensors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHistorically, there has been little appetite for winter tyres in the UK which meant that when workshops were removing tyres, they were normally being scrapped so it didn\u2019t matter if the tyres were damaged in the process,\u201d explains Paul Beaurain, managing director, Pro-Align. \u201cHowever, now that there\u2019s been quite a sizeable growth in the winter tyre market, workshops need to ensure that they do not cause any damage when removing and refitting tyres. With its fully automated process, the Revolution can help greatly with this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Technicians using the Revolution control all of the changer\u2019s operations through an intelligent foot pedal and touch screen interface, but input requirement is minimal. From here, all functions of changing the tyre such as breaking the bead and using the leverless hook to demount the bead are controlled without any hands-on assistance from the user. Not only does this enhance user-safety, but it also reduces any likelihood of operator error which may result in damage to bead areas and TPMS sensors, a common problem when removing low profile or runflat tyres with their stiff sidewalls.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs more and more drivers recognise the importance of swapping between winter and summer tyres, it\u2019s going to be even more important for workshops to carry out this work without causing any damage,\u201d concludes Beaurain.<\/p>\n<p>Workshops keen to see the powerful capabilities of the Hunter Revolution can watch in action via Pro-Align\u2019s website (www.pro-align.co.uk) or call 01327 323007 to arrange a demonstration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new fully automated Hunter tyre changer, is set to help workshops protect motorists\u2019 tyres this spring when they switch back from winter to summer rubber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":10264,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,652],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-workshop-equipment"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
