5. AQUILA ALLIANCE DESCRIPTION
The AQUILA ALLIANCE allows extremely easy bead breaking, demounting and mounting
of any type of tyre in the aforesaid categories having rim diameter from 12” to 28 “.
In all stages, the AQUILA ALLIANCE works with the wheel horizontal, clamped and per-
fectly centred on the turntable.
Wheel loading and unloading operations are simplified by an ergonomic wheel lift (op-
tional kit) which reduces the operator effort required.
The key feature of the AQUILA ALLIANCE is the elimination of the bead lifter lever.
Its absolutely innovative operating principle comprises:
- An effective system which clamps the wheel by means of its central well (an optional
clamping kit is available for closed centre rims).
- This pneumatic clamping system, allows the wheel to be centred and clamped using a
simple handle, supporting a cone. Moreover, since the wheel rests on the contact zone
only, breaking the bead on the underside with the wheel in the horizontal working po-
sition becomes much easier.
- A pneumatic bead breaker unit consisting of two bead-breaker disk arms. Vertical mo-
vement is pneumatic and independent, controlled from the control panel. The horizontal
positioning of the disks is manual with pneumatic operation from the control panel and
permits the simultaneous positioning of the bead-breaker disks. Bead breaking is ensured
by the movement of the disk with controlled hold-to-run control.
