What Is a Wheel Straighten Machine?

A wheel straighten machine is used to repair bent alloy wheels caused by potholes, curbs, or rough roads. Instead of replacing the wheel, this machine brings it back to its correct shape, helping workshops save money and offer a valuable service.

GUBOT manufactures professional wheel straighten machines designed for daily use in automotive workshops, tire shops, and wheel repair centers.

How Does a Wheel Straighten Machine Work?

The machine works by applying controlled hydraulic pressure to the bent part of the rim. The basic steps include:

1. The wheel is mounted securely

2. The damaged area is inspected

3. Pressure is applied slowly

4. The wheel is restored to its original shape

A wheel straighten machine helps prevent over-correction and reduces the risk of cracking when used properly.
