Car Talk3d Touchless Wheel Alignment Technology by touriaccc(op): 10:27am On Apr 11, 2025
What is wheel alignment?
Alignment refers to adjusting the vehicle's suspension (the system that connects the vehicle to the wheel). It is not adjusting the tire or wheel itself. The key to correct positioning is to adjust the angle of the tire, which affects the way the tire contacts the road.
When is wheel alignment needed?
①Heavy steering, shaking, deviation, misalignment, and non-returning
②Uneven wear on one side of the tire
③Steering wheel vibration
What are the disadvantages of traditional wheel alignment technology?
Traditional wheel alignment technology uses a clamp of the clamping rim type, which is easy to damage the customer's rim, damage the overall body beauty and durability of the rim, and easily lose business. As a result, major brands around the world are developing and promoting contactless wheel alignment technology.
As the global leader in contactless wheel alignment technology, Lawrencehttps://lawrence.ltd/ uses a contactless wheel clamp. Its tough magnesium alloy material makes it about 57% lighter than traditional clamps, and supports installation at any angle - adapting to different models and modified customized vehicles.
But what exactly is contactless wheel alignment technology? Is the use of contactless wheel clamps contactless wheel alignment technology?
In fact, this technology does use a non-contact wheel fixture, which only requires the tire surface and has no direct contact, protecting the rim and wheel, truly achieving zero damage.
Dynamic technology vs. static technology
The use of a non-contact wheel fixture does not mean a contactless wheel alignment technology! It requires powerful dynamic technology to support it!

The dynamic technology uses the inference method to simulate the rolling state of the wheel, obtains real-time data of wheel dynamics for digital model regeneration, and can effectively fit the errors caused by the deformation of the rim, wheel clamp, and target material. The accuracy life is greater than 15 years. The technicians can capture data dynamically through a push cart to achieve accurate measurement.
However, wheel alignment uses static measurement technology, which is highly dependent on processing and assembly accuracy. Once the wheel fixture, target material, and rim are deformed, the measurement accuracy will drop significantly. The accurate life may be only 1 year.

In addition, Lawrence successfully developed this technology in 2014. After 11 years (2025), the technology has become more mature and perfect with continuous upgrades and corrections. It has a large number of useful data on vehicle models and different situations, creating a huge database to ensure accurate measurement.
Static technology equipment is cheap, but from the perspective of labor costs, correction costs and average unit price per unit time, dynamic technology is a wiser choice. Not only is the net profit higher, but there is no need to frequently replace equipment, which not only saves time but also makes money.

FAQ
How to distinguish dynamic technology from dynamic technology?
When the fixture is clamped horizontally and vertically, if the error of the two data is greater than 0.7, it is static technology, and if it is less than 0.7, it is dynamic technology.
When the suspension is clamped, the bottom suspension and the top suspension are compared. If the error of the two data is greater than 0.7, it is static technology, and if it is less than 0.7, it is dynamic technology.
What companies in the world have contactless wheel alignment technology?
Lawrence, Hunter, Johnbean, and Corghi all have this technology, but the industry-leading Lawrence's products are 1/5 to 1/3 the price of the same competing products, and its dynamic measurement technology is the world's top 2.
