US Style Lifts

IMI training centreWe call these models 'US' style because they adopt the electro-hydraulic design which has become increasingly popular in Europe in recent years. Hydraulic lifts have long been the most common method in the US, undoubtedly the largest market for lifts.

Cheaper to produce, they are a little more complex and timely to install, and perhaps representative of the 'throwaway' culture we have all come to live with in recent decades. That said, all of our US style lifts are built to an extremely high standard, particularly the LUXUS models, and therefore whilst it may not be fair to expect the same life expectancy of a 'screw' lift, they are undoubtedly considered to be amongst the most durable and reliable electro-hydraulic lifts on the market.

A tyre changer is a tyre changer, right? Wrong!

That is one of the biggest misconceptions in the business! Tyre fitting machines vary immensely, even if on face value they all look the same. The source of manufacture (generally Italy or China), the gauge of steel, the inclusion of an assist arm (of which there are numerous types with varying levels of performance), machines specifically for alloy and titanium rims, models that will handle both car and motorcycle, the options are endless.
 
Whether it is a brand new fully automatic tyre changer machine like the X-Boss or something from our second hand tyre machine sale, you can trust the Hofmann Megaplan brand for your tyre fitting machine needs. Continuing to be one of the spearheads of industry-leading tyre changers is a difficult feat, however at Hofmann Megaplan we have supplied the first 4 cylinder turntable (the QuadraClamp), the first leverless device for a conventional tyre changer, the first bead breaker with automatic return to home position, the patented Par-Move parallelogram concept, the list is endless. Our innovative mentality has driven these advancements in our products and the services we provide along side them, and that's not likely to change any time soon...

Just ask one of our experts for advice on the right tyre changer for you.
