Katool KT-AV6 – Wheel Alignment Machine (3D, Mobile)
Katool KT-AV6 Wheel Alignment Machine with Mobile 3D Technology
Also known as: KT-AV6
The Katool KT-AV6 is a mobile 3D wheel alignment machine for 2-post and scissor lifts. This automatic wheel alignment machine uses dual cameras to measure wheelbases up to 2.1 m (82.68 in), track widths up to 4.5 m (177.17 in), and tire diameters from 250-800 mm (9.84-31.50 in). It comes complete with an Android/iOS tablet, 30-inch display, wireless connectivity, and a thermal printer so you can run full alignment jobs from a single cart.
Features
Mobile 3D Wheel Alignment Machine for Multi-Lift Compatibility
This portable wheel alignment machine runs on a compact wheeled cart that moves between bays in under 30 seconds. The 200 kg (440.92 lb) unit fits through standard shop doorways, requires no floor mounting, and works on both 2-post and scissor lifts without adapter plates or brackets. The mobile design lets you convert any compatible bay into an alignment station so shops with multiple lifts can add alignment capacity without dedicating a full bay.
No Calibration During Installation
The KT-AV6 arrives factory-calibrated with its 2-camera 3D imaging system ready to measure. Plug into a 100-240 V outlet, connect the tablet to WiFi, and start alignments in about 15 minutes with no laser positioning, camera height adjustments, or test vehicle runs. When you move the cart to a different bay, the cameras automatically compensate for the new position, cutting 2–3 hours off setup compared to fixed-cabinet alignment machines.
Unlimited Vehicle Spec Memory with Free Annual Updates
The Android/iOS software stores unlimited vehicle specifications with no subscription fees or storage caps. It includes factory alignment specs for passenger cars and light trucks from US, European, and Asian manufacturers, plus free annual database updates for new model years. The tablet syncs updates over WiFi in 10–15 minutes and keeps previous alignment jobs in memory so you can compare before-and-after data and track vehicle history.
Complete Alignment Station with Display and Printer
Katool includes everything needed to run alignment jobs: an Android/iOS control tablet, 30-inch color display, wireless mouse and keypad, and a thermal printer. The eye-level display shows camber, caster, and toe readings in real time while the thermal printer outputs before-and-after reports on standard 80 mm paper rolls. Customers can view their alignment data on the 30-inch screen or through the free mobile app.
Smartphone and Tablet Sync for Real-Time Data
The included WiFi device broadcasts alignment data to Android and iOS smartphones and tablets. Technicians can check camber and toe changes on a phone without walking back to the cart, and service advisors can show live readings on a tablet in the waiting area. The system supports up to 8 simultaneous device connections through a free app that mirrors the 30-inch display.

Applications
Lift Compatibility
The KT-AV6 works on 2-post vehicle lifts (symmetric and asymmetric column designs) and scissor lifts without modification. The mobile cart positions at any distance from the lift columns, and the dual cameras adjust their viewing angle automatically. You don't need to mark floor positions or install guide rails.
Vehicle Range
This car wheel alignment machine handles passenger vehicles, SUVs, and light trucks up to 19.5-inch wheels, giving you a single auto alignment machine for most light-duty work. The wheelbase range of 1.6-2.1 m (62.99-82.68 in) covers subcompacts through full-size pickups, while the 1.8-4.5 m (70.87-177.17 in) track width capacity accommodates standard vehicles and dually trucks. For heavier commercial trucks beyond one-ton capacity, you'll need a heavy-duty truck wheel alignment machine with wider track width ratings.
Shop Configuration
The 200 kg (440.92 lb) cart rolls on 4-inch casters and passes through doorways as narrow as 36 inches. One technician can push the cart from bay to bay. The system draws from standard 100-240 V outlets (no 208 V or 3-phase required). It operates in shop temperatures from 41-104 F (5-40 C), handling both climate-controlled facilities and unheated garages in most US regions.
Specifications
The KT-AV6 uses 2 high-resolution cameras to capture 3D wheel position data for precise 4 wheel alignment. It measures vehicles from 1.6 m to 2.1 m wheelbase with track widths between 1.8 m and 4.5 m. The system runs on single-phase 100-240 V power and ships in 2 crates with a combined weight of 240 kg (529.11 lb).

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of lifts does the KT-AV6 work with?
The KT-AV6 works with both 2-post vehicle lifts (symmetric and asymmetric designs) and scissor lifts without requiring adapter plates or mounting brackets. The mobile cart positions at any distance from lift columns, and the dual cameras automatically adjust their viewing angle for each setup. You don't need to mark floor positions or install guide rails-just roll the cart into position and start measuring.
How long does installation take?
Installation takes approximately 15 minutes after uncrating. The system arrives pre-calibrated from the factory, so you only need to plug in power (100-240 V), connect the tablet to WiFi, and begin alignment jobs. There's no laser positioning, camera height adjustments, or test vehicle calibration runs required like traditional fixed-cabinet aligners need.
Can this machine handle truck alignments?
The KT-AV6 handles light trucks and passenger vehicles with wheelbases from 1.6-2.1 m (62.99-82.68 in) and track widths up to 4.5 m (177.17 in), covering vehicles up to one-ton pickups with 19.5-inch wheels. For heavier commercial trucks beyond one-ton capacity or dually configurations with wider track widths, you'll need a heavy-duty truck wheel alignment machine designed for Class 3-8 commercial vehicles.
How does the smartphone sync feature work?
The included WiFi device broadcasts alignment data to Android and iOS devices over your shop's local network. Download the free app from Google Play or the App Store, connect to the aligner's WiFi signal, and view the same camber, caster, and toe readings that appear on the 30-inch display. The system supports up to 8 simultaneous device connections, so technicians and service advisors can monitor alignment progress from anywhere in the shop.
What comes included with the KT-AV6?
The package includes the mobile cart with dual cameras, an Android/iOS control tablet, 30-inch color display screen, wireless mouse and keypad, thermal printer with paper rolls, WiFi device, USB drive, and wheel targets for mounting on vehicle wheels. You'll receive everything needed to perform 4-wheel alignments right out of the crate-no additional accessories required to start measuring.
Do I need to pay for software updates?
No, Katool provides free database upgrades once per year. These updates add new model year vehicles and manufacturer specifications without subscription fees or recurring costs. The tablet downloads updates over WiFi in 10-15 minutes, keeping your system current with the latest US, European, and Asian vehicle models as they're released.
What's the difference between this and a fixed-cabinet aligner?
The KT-AV6's mobile design lets you move it between bays in under 30 seconds, while fixed-cabinet systems require dedicated floor space in one bay. The mobile cart weighs 200 kg (440.92 lb) and rolls on casters through standard doorways, so you can convert any bay with a compatible lift into an alignment station. Fixed systems typically need permanent camera mounting and floor markings that tie up one lift full-time.
What power requirements does the machine have?
The KT-AV6 runs on standard 100-240 V single-phase power at 50 or 60 Hz. It plugs into regular shop outlets without requiring 208 V, 3-phase, or special electrical circuits. The universal voltage input works in both US facilities (120 V) and shops with 240 V service, and it operates in shop temperatures from 41-104 F (5-40 C).
