Hunter HawkEye® XL HXL421CM6 Cabinet-Mount Commercial Camera Alignment Sensors

Hunter HawkEye® XL HXL421CM6 Cabinet-Mount Commercial Alignment Sensors

The Hunter HXL421CM6 is the movable, cabinet-mount sensor configuration of the Hunter HawkEye® XL commercial alignment system. It uses extra-long-range, high-definition cameras and durable, non-electronic 3D XL targets to show live alignment readings from three axles at once. It delivers accurate measurements in four minutes or less. The movable cabinet and adjustable camera beam let technicians align vehicles in multiple bays, on the floor or on a lift. The system handles Class 8 trucks and tractors, trailers, buses, medium-duty fleet vehicles, and passenger cars. It is designed and built in the USA by Hunter Engineering Company.

Long-range camera technology

• High-definition cameras with extra-long-range sight monitor each wheel in 3D space for pinpoint-accurate measurements
• Three axles live: see all measurements at once, with minimal target movement
• Single rolling compensation captures all measurements in one motion
• 53-foot trailers: the long-range cameras see targets on trailers up to 53 feet, in standard or back-in orientation

XL targets

• Always ready: no batteries, cables, or wireless signal connection needed
• Built shop-tough: durable, lightweight, and low maintenance, with no electronics at the wheel
• Self-centering wheel adaptors (standard): fit wheels from 15 to 28 inches, with six included
• Optional magnetic wheel adaptors: attach to the lug nuts, with no metal spades between the rim and tire
• Optional wide-angle extensions: extend the targets outward for better visibility when measuring caster and maximum steering angle
• Optional QuickGrip® adaptors: available in heavy-duty and passenger versions

Movable cabinet-mount configuration

• Moves between bays with a full range of travel for additional lift height
• Adjustable camera beam for floor or lift alignments

Fully Integrated Alignment (FIA)

Paired with an FIA-capable Hunter lift or turnplates, such as the L494HD heavy-duty four-post, the WinAlign® console operates turnplates and slip plates automatically. Raising the lift triggers the cameras to look for wheel targets. Hunter says FIA gets alignment readings in 4 minutes with one trip to the console, no jacking, and 81 total steps.
