The Atlas 412AP 12,000 pound capacity alignment lift package is designed and built to commercial grade standards and will provide many years of service. Our Atlas alignment packages offer many exclusive features not found on many other competitor's lifts. Each Atlas 412AP alignment lift package consists of the Atlas 12,000 lb alignment lift, 2 of the
Atlas RJ-6000
rolling jacks (6,000 pound capacity) and a set of front turntables. The turntables can be set in different positions on the runway. There is also an air line kit ($300 value) included with each package. The slip plate package is built into the runways. Drive through ramps are available as an option.
Most truck shipments will be delivered by a commercial freight carrier operating a tractor/trailer rig. The semi trailer will be enclosed. Most commercial carriers have smaller straight trucks and some have small flatbed trucks, but the majority of freight companies will not use these smaller trucks for your delivery. Greg Smith Equipment cannot guarantee the type of truck that will be used for delivery. You should assume that your product will be delivered on a tractor/trailer rig that uses a 53 foot enclosed trailer. This is a VERY LONG rig. It is the truck driver's responsibility to make sure that your product is brought to the back of the delivery truck. It is the customer's responsibility to unload the product from the truck. Watch our video on how to unload your two post or four post lift from a semi truck.
Features:
The Atlas 412AP (12,000 LB. capacity alignment lift package) incorporates many structural and cosmetic features that are found on lifts costing thousands of dollars more money. The Atlas 412AP is tested to ensure that this alignment lift system will perform flawlessly at its rated capacities. The Atlas 412AP has been manufactured to the same exacting specifications for many years.
The Atlas 412AP uses a high strength cable system (with a under runway oversized hydraulic cylinder) powered by a 220 volt (single phase) power unit to raise and lower the lift. Many competitors use an
"
old style
"
chain lifting system with an exposed hydraulic cylinder system. Old style chain lifts are difficult to
"
level
"
properly and the exposed hydraulic cylinder is responsible for numerous
"
door dings
"
.
The Atlas 412AP alignment system incorporates a lock ladder system in each column and all four column locks are simultaneously air activated from the power unit column. The runways are bolted to the cross tubes, but can be adjusted (moved in) if needed.
One pair (2) of turntables and built-in slip plates are standard with the Atlas 412AP 12,000 LB. four post lift system. The alignment turntables can be moved to two different positions.
Electrical Requirement:
The electric motor for the power unit requires 220 Volt (single phase) 60 Hz. We recommend using at least a 10 gauge (grounded) wire from the electrical panel. The power unit has a short pigtail (no plug) that can be wired to either a quick disconnect box (mounted on the lift column) or to a male/female plug combination. A 30 amp breaker is recommended.
Atlas RJ-6000 Rolling Jacks:
The Atlas RJ-6000 is a heavy duty rolling jack designed to lift and support 6,000 LB. The commercial grade RJ-6000 rolling jack can be used to raise the front or rear portion of a vehicle; allowing the operator of a four post above ground lift to perform wheel and brake service. Most commercial shops buy two of these hydraulic rolling jacks, so that the entire vehicle can be supported in the air at the same time.
The Atlas RJ-6000 has telescoping arms that can be extended over the runways of the four post lift. The lift pads at the end of these arms can be positioned under the LIFTING POINTS that are located over the runways of the four post lift. The Atlas RJ-6000 rolling bridge is equipped with expandable supports which adjust to fit many different brands of four post above ground lifts. These supports have a unique roller system that allows the rolling hydraulic jack to glide easily under the entire length of the vehicle. The large heavy steel wheels allow the rolling jack to be positioned under the correct lifting points in a matter of seconds.
The Atlas Atlas RJ-6000 comes standard with a set of peg style truck adapters which increases the lifting height of the lift pads. These truck adapters will allow the Atlas RJ-6000 rolling hydraulic jack to raise most pick up and larger trucks that will sit higher than the average passenger car.
The Atlas RJ-6000 comes equipped with an Atlas Air/Hydraulic Pump. The air/hydraulic pump requires a supply of compressed air (air compressor) to work properly.
The Atlas RJ-6000 rolling hydraulic jack features two solid locking positions that are used when the vehicle is to be suspended above the runways. When the locking positions of the Atlas RJ-6000 are engaged, the hydraulic pressure from the lifting cylinder of the jack is eliminated. (These locks act much like a pair of jack stands after you lift a vehicle off the ground with a service jack).
Atlas Edge 101 Alignment Machine:
The Atlas Edge 101 is a highly accurate, easy to use, state of the art wireless alignment system. The Atlas Edge 101 is the perfect choice for those smaller automotive shops that perform only a few alignments per week. The accuracy of the Atlas Edge 101 is on par with alignment systems costing 5 times as much.
The four sensors communicate with each other and the console using the wireless communication technology
ZigBee ® and I/R. The Atlas Edge 101 includes a compact wheeled cabinet with built in cable/desktop charging units. The Atlas Edge 101 also includes a computer CPU with alignment database, LCD monitor, keyboard, and color printer. Also included are two (2) self centering four point wheel clamps (used for the main sensors and two (2) rapid clamps that are used for the target sensors. The Atlas Edge 101 delivers an easy to use wireless communication system and a
"
dead nut
"
accurate measurement system at an unbelievable price.
Camera and Target Sensors:
The main sensors have two cameras installed in each sensor. The target sensors have no cameras but are equipment with special targets that reflect the I/R signal.
Two wheel alignment is performed by attaching the main sensors to the front wheels and hanging the target sensors from the rear wheels.
Four wheel alignment is performed by (first) hanging the main sensors on the rear wheels and the target sensors on the front wheels. Those measurements are recorded (in the computer system) and the operator then moves the main sensors to the front wheels and the target sensors to the rear wheels. Those measurements are recorded and the operator can then begin to make adjustments based upon total
"
4-wheel alignment
"
measurements.
The Edge 101 provides an
"
8 camera
"
measurement system with only four cameras and delivers the same accuracy as any of the other Edge machines.
Infrared CCD Image Recognition And Measurement Technology:
The high precision infrared CCD image recognition and measurement technology self-adapts to ambient light. Additional sensor cables are provided that could be used to connect the sensors in the unlikely event of a ZigBee ® communication interruption or battery failure.
ZigBee ® Wireless Communication Technology:
New generation
ZigBee ®
wireless communication technology replaces the outdated Bluetooth ® technology, with stronger networking capacity, greater reliability, lower energy-consumption and faster data transmission over longer distances.
Customer Vehicle Alignment Database:
Customer vehicle alignment database allows the operator to note and review alignment history, and optimize alignment steps and key points. Vehicle database updates are provided by the internationally authoritative Auto Data ® CO. which include over 20,000 car models worldwide. This vehicle data alignment base may be updated on an annual basis for $200. The data can be uploaded over the Internet, so there is no need to pay for a service call.
Four (4) wheel and two (2) wheel alignment:
The main sensors incorporate two cameras in each sensor. The target sensors have no cameras. When performing a two wheel alignment, the main (camera sensors) are installed on the front wheels and the target sensors are installed on the rear wheels.
When performing a four wheel alignment, the target sensors are (first) installed on the front wheel and the main sensors are installed on the rear wheels. The readings are recorded and then the sensors are reversed, with the main sensors installed on the front wheels and the target sensors installed on the rear wheels. This alignment procedure is a little more time consuming than the Atlas Edge 201 (hyperlink) procedure, but the accuracy is the same. Instead of using eight (8) cameras to obtain the necessary readings (in the beginning), the operator is using four (4) cameras in two different positions to obtain the same measurements.
Jack-Hold Program:
Data freezing (jack-hold) program allows the operator to record the vehicle's current measurements and factory recommended specifications into the computer (while the vehicles tires are on the runways), then raise the vehicle (with the rolling jacks) off the runways to make the necessary adjustments or replace the parts. When the vehicle is lowered back onto the runway, the
"
new
"
measurements are compared (immediately) to the factory specifications. This allows the operator to make the necessary adjustments while the vehicle is still in the
"
alignment mode
"
and not create measurement variances.
Languages:
Currently there are 14 languages included in the software. English, Spanish, German, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Czechoslovakian, Korean, Croatian, Greek, Portuguese, and Serbian. More languages will be added (no cost) in 2012.
Self-Diagnosis and Calibration:
Self-diagnosis function is included with this alignment system. Sensors can perform self diagnostic procedure (in the field). Operator is able to check sensors and restore factory settings easily. The sensors can be calibrated by the operator (in the field) by using the factory calibration bar. (Optional)
4-point wheel clamp compensation:
Vehicle must be raised and wheel rotated 180° (each direction) to perform the wheel clamp lateral run-out compensation procedure.
Remote Technical Support:
Use your Internet access to either update your software or diagnose software issues with your Edge alignment equipment. Greg Smith Equipment recommends that our customers install TeamViewer ® (free) on their alignment computer system. Our IT department can access your computer and resolve most issues during your
"
non-business
"
hours. We
"
take control
"
of the customer's alignment system and can install new software or update any previously installed software.
The
"
remote
"
technician can also diagnose and correct just about any issue without the need for
"
hands on
"
(expensive and time sensitive) service call.
Most customers have high-speed hard wired Internet or wireless Internet at either their business or home. In some instances, the alignment sensors will need to be attached to the alignment system during a
"
remote
"
software update or diagnostic session. This situation would require that the TeamViewer ® be accessed (through the Internet) at the business location. However, several software updates may require only the CPU to be accessed. The customer (if he does not have Internet at the shop) may remove his CPU from the alignment machine and take it to a location that has high speed Internet service.
Calibration and Compensation for use on an non-level surface:
Alignments may be performed on almost any just about any four post lift or even on a fairly level floor.
Lift height variations are entered into the sensor heads and the software will compensate for the difference between the heights. This feature allows the operator to take alignment measurements from longer wheel base vehicles that may not fit on the alignment rack.
System may be used without a computer, monitor, keypad or printer:
Operator may complete a four (4) wheel or two (2) wheel alignment without the use of an external computer. The sensor computers will display current measurements of the vehicle and operator may compare those
"
live
"
measurements with factory measurements. The operator can adjust the vehicles suspension system and validate his new adjustments with the sensors.
Perfect for onsite portable alignments:
The Atlas Edge 101 is perfect for the race car enthusiast who wants to make
"
race track
"
adjustments in the field. The battery powered Edge 101 sensors do not require electricity, so the customer can take the machine to remote locations and perform on-site alignments.

Why spend your alignment equipment dollars on older (and sometimes obsolete) alignment
equipment,when the same amount of money will buy an alignment machine that costs about
the same as a used Hunter ® alignment machine, but does so much more.
Before you spend $15,000 to $35,000 or more for a Hunter ® alignment machine (or any
other BIG brand name alignment machine) please consider buying an Edge (state of the
art) alignment machine from Greg Smith Equipment Sales, Inc.
Our top of the line Atlas EDGE 601 machine sells for about $12,000. The BIG NAME
competition's top of the line alignment machines sell for over $25,000. What value
do you receive when you pay two times the money for a Big RED alignment machine?
Your Atlas alignment machine is dependent on the software stored in your CPU. You must
protect your CPU from power surges or a sudden loss of power. Battery backup products
with surge protection capabilities should always be used with your Atlas alignment machine.
