“A great innovation is the Corghi patented double-roller bead pressing tool next to the tools, which automatically aligns with the wheel centre while positioning the rollers over the rim edge is done manually; this im-
he shared that the combined use of hy- draulic and pneumatic drives had opti- mised the work cycle. The result was a lower working time in the tyre-changing cycle than other tyre changers. “Two work cycles are available -- the Nor- mal-RFT and Soft manual and automatic use. The automatic work cycle as well as use in manual mode are improved with a reduction of work time by 20 per cent (this refers to the change of a tyre).”
It comes with full HD touchscreen monitor but no laser, which provides the fastest speed when entering the rim size. Fea- turing an ergonomic console, the controls are positioned on the Master CODE to maintain a familiar feeling and ease the switch between the two models.

the Master Force was just slightly wider. Thanks to an innovative design, he said it required less than 1.4m space and a working area of less than 3m2.
The core of Master Force, he pointed out, was the Smart Corghi System that was brought to a higher level in quality and performance. The brand-new tooling unit could eliminate any tension between tyre and rim for even the most demanding - mance (UHP) tyres.
Some notable new features, he contin- ued, included new tool assembly and bead pressing tool. The work tools were optimised and positioned to achieve preservation of the rim and tyre. The demounting tool was thinned to reduce tension as much as possible while the bead breaker disc was aligned to reach the working position through quick activa- tion. Likewise, it would return to its rest

Corida Sdn Bhd, the exclusive dis- tributor of Corghi products in Ma- laysia, recently brought in a new
tyre changer and two wheel aligners.
According to the Joint Managing Direc- tor Alex Chan, the Artiglio Master Force is the new Corghi hydraulic tyre changer with contactless system. He described the Master Force tyre changer as the perfect equipment for professionals who wished to invest in their future and any tyre ser- vice operators who would rather not com- promise on quality and performance, but to provide top service and brand image.
“With the new Master Force, Corghi now provides a new tyre changer to enhance the use of its contactless technology. Equipped with a hydraulic drive that pro- vides force and speed for bead breaking and turntable movement, it is suitable for rim ranging from 13-inch up to 32-inch, maximum wheel diameter of 1200mm (47-inch) and maximum wheel width of 406.4mm (16-inch). Once again, we stand out as being the only one to pro-
