Non-contact four-wheel locator ——WAT-2000

W heel A lignment S ystem—WAT-2000

Place of origin: China

Manufacturing company: IYASAKA

Testing concepts

A platform used to measure and evaluate parameters and components such as vehicle camber, caster, kingpin camber, kingpin caster, thrust angle, steering angle, etc.

Meet the requirements of online adjustment of front beam and external inclination.

Test principles

The four-wheel positioning sensor utilizes IYASAKA independently developed 3D laser sensing technology. By employing dynamic laser illumination matrix reconstruction, it generates tire surface 3D images at 10/20 Hz frequency. This enables accurate determination of front camber and caster angles through tire 3D modeling. The system can be configured with wheel bead height measurement units for vehicle body (wheel bead) height assessment. It also supports expandable functions including axle load measurement and steering angle monitoring.
