Nov. 17, 2009

Corghi USA is ramping up its product offerings in the United States with several new machines, including the Artiglio 500, which uses the firm's "Leva la Leva" system.

The 500 is for passenger and light truck tires and can work with rim sizes ranging from 12 inches to 32 inches in diameter.

Other new products include:

* the EM7270, a microprocessor-operated wheel balancer for passenger tires. It's based on Corghi's EM7240 balancer.

* the Black Tech X Series, the latest generation of the company's Black Tech wheel alignment system. The Black Tech X uses eight high-resolution digital cameras, plus other components.

Corghi displayed many of its new products at the recent 2009 Specialty Equipment Market Association Show in Las Vegas, Nev.
