AMGO® AX-12A 12,000 lb Alignment Scissor Lift
The AMGO® AX-12A is a 12,000 lb alignment scissor lift with a control cabinet and dual synchronous cylinders. Its electro-air control system runs the self-lock safety mechanism, and the 300 mm stop switch and descent alarm protect the bay throughout the cycle. Built to carry alignment turnplate and slip-plate pockets, it turns a scissor bay into a full alignment station.
Full-rise platforms reach 72-7/8" and settle to 11-3/4", giving alignment techs a stable, repeatable working height for cars, vans and light trucks up to the rated load.
Who It's Built For
- Alignment shops that want a full-rise scissor with turnplate and slip-plate pockets
- Cars, vans and light trucks within the 12,000 lb rating
- Bays combining alignment and general undercarriage service on one lift
- Shops that rely on synchronized dual cylinders for level, repeatable lifts
- Techs who want electro-air self-locking safety on an alignment platform
What It's NOT Built For
- Loads above 12,000 lb — move up to the AX-16A
- General-service-only bays with no alignment work — the AX-12 costs less
- Slabs of unverified thickness — test the concrete first
- Motorcycles and ATVs — use a powersport lift
- Ceilings that cannot clear a full-rise raised vehicle
Key Differentiator: Built-in alignment on a full-rise scissor
The AX-12A adds turnplate and slip-plate pockets to a 12,000 lb full-rise scissor, so one lift handles both wheel alignments and everyday undercarriage service without a separate rack.
- Shops that run alignments and general service on the same lift
- General-service-only bays that never touch an alignment (pick the AX-12)
