There are different types of equipment which are used in garages and are known as Garage Equipments. Some of the garage equipment include Wheel Alignment, Tire Changer, Wheel Balancer, Lifts, Gas Analyzer, Smoke Meter, AC Service Equipment, Test Lanes, Battery Charger, Nitrogen Inflators, Brake Equipment, Automatic Tire Inflators etc.
Wheel Alignment Machine
Wheel alignment is also known as tracking or breaking which help in the
maintenance of automobiles and consists of wheel adjusting angles that
are adjusted according to the specification of the car marker. These
adjustments to the wheels are done to decrease the tire wear which also
ensures the travel of the vehicle is true and straight and it does not
pull to one side.

To achieve a specific handling feature the alignment angles can be changed beyond the specifications of the marker. The primary angles of the wheels are the angle of basic alignment of the wheels to the car’s body and to each other. The primary angles of wheels consist of adjustments of toe, caster and camber. The secondary angles consist of several other adjustments like Set Back, Frame Angle, Toe Curve Change, Wheelbase Difference etc.
Tire Changer Machine -- The machine which helps the tire technicians to mount and dismount tires with wheels of the automobiles is known as tire changer. After the tire and wheel assembly are eliminated from the automobile, the tire changer has all the parts necessary to replace and eliminate from the tire and the automobile’s wheel.

Different types of tire changers are used by the technicians to alter the tires on motorcycles, automobiles and heavy duty trucks. Wheel technology and new tire has improved the tire changers to alter the run flat tire or a low profile tier. The equipment which are used in service stations are known as Garage Equipments. Some of the equipment which are used in service stations are hydraulic or washing lifts, car washer, air compressor, auto service unit, grease pump, tool trolley, tire inflectors, etc.
Air compressors are devices which are used for converting power from gasoline or diesel engines or electric motors into kinetic energy by pressurizing and compressing air which can also be released in rapid bursts. There are various process of air compression which are divided into wither negative displacement or positive displacement types.
