With its European HQ in France, Blackhawk had a major presence at the recent Equip Auto Show in Paris, with two recently introduced pulling benches attracting particular attention from prospective customers.
The Power Pro XL and Power Pro XXL, are new flexible bench systems that give all the power and performance of a traditional drive on pulling bench, but with a compact design, to meet the floor management needs of many modern day bodyshops. They feature detachable pulling arms, as well as modular runways which mean that when not in use, the jig sits at just 130mm above floor level, meaning it does not take up an entire bay.
The Power Pro XXL at 5M long is especially suitable for lifting and straightening vans and four wheel drive vehicles, as well as passenger cars. Both systems are fully compatible with Blackhawk electronic or mechanical measuring systems and offer fast vehicle set-up.
The Blackhawk team were also on hand to demonstrate several other new bodyshop products, including the HDL40 Wheel alignment system and enhancements to the Shark alignment system software.
