ART Laser String

Primary uses for the "Laser String" include; rear axle alignment, toe/tracking alignment, and track offset. Unlike the traditional laser that emits a single point laser beam, the laser string emits a vertical laser line to create a laser plane vertical and parallel to the tire surface. The goal in the design of the laser string was to provide a single mechanic the ability to perform a rear axle alignment using a procedure similar to the most common string methods used today, hence the name "Laser String".

Advantages of laser string over traditional string methods:
The elimination of a second mechanic that is typically needed in the string method.
The elimination of the mechanics judgment that a string is accurately aligned to the surface of the tire.
The elimination of having to realign the string after an adjustment to the rear axle.
Repeatability.
Increased speed in performing an alignment which saves valuable labour.
