Hofmann GEOLINER® 678 Mobile Imaging Wheel Aligner

If your shop runs alignments out of more than one bay — or occasionally needs the aligner somewhere it wasn't originally installed — a console that's bolted in place becomes the bottleneck, not the alignment lift. The Hofmann GEOLINER® 678 is built to move. It's a mobile imaging aligner with touchless wheel clamping and an intuitive one-click workflow, so the equipment goes wherever the work is instead of the other way around.

What separates the 678 from the fixed-console GEOLINER® 660 is exactly that mobility, paired with the AC400 touchless clamping system — no rim contact, no accessories needed across the full tire size range. For high-volume shops that specialize in alignment work and want Hofmann's fastest boot-up time and the most advanced automatic height tracking on top of that mobility, the Hofmann GEOLINER® 770 is the premium mobile tier.

Who the GEOLINER® 678 Is Built For

  • A shop that swapped which bay hosts alignment work more than once and got tired of re-installing a console every time — the 678's mobile design means it just rolls to wherever it's needed next.
  • A tech who's spent time fighting with clamps around aftermarket rims or unusual wheel finishes — the AC400 touchless clamping system secures the wheel without ever touching the rim, so there's no accessory swapping and no risk of marking a customer's wheels.
  • A shop owner tracking how many alignments get done per shift — the new intuitive software handles core alignment functions in one click, which adds up to more completed jobs across a busy day.
  • A tech who's had an alignment interrupted by an unexpected error mid-process — the Compensate, Warn, Alert system detects issues and, where it can, compensates automatically instead of stopping the job cold.
  • A shop that's manually re-tracked targets mid-alignment more times than they'd like to admit — automatic tracking removes that manual step and the time it costs during a busy day.
  • A shop that wants imaging-grade accuracy but isn't ready for a fixed console installation — the 678 delivers Hofmann's camera-based measurement technology in a mobile package.

What the GEOLINER® 678 Is NOT Built For

High-volume shops that specialize in alignments and want the fastest boot-up and most advanced automatic height tracking should look at the Hofmann GEOLINER® 770 instead — it's Hofmann's premium mobile tier.

What Makes the GEOLINER® 678 Different

AC400 Touchless Wheel Clamping System

Secure clamping without touching the rim — patented technology for accurate, repeatable results with no accessories needed across the full range of tire sizes.

Fast & Easy to Use

New, intuitive software designed together with technicians covers core alignment functions in one click, meaning more alignments per day.

Compensate, Warn, Alert System

Detects and, where possible, compensates for errors without interrupting the alignment process — corrective actions are clearly identified.

Automatic Tracking

No manual re-tracking step required during the alignment process.

Mobile Design

Built to move between service bays or locations, not fixed to one console setup.

✅ Best For
  • Shops running alignment work out of more than one bay or moving the aligner between job sites.
  • Shops that regularly service wheels with delicate finishes or unusual clamping needs.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
  • High-volume alignment specialists who want the fastest boot-up time on the market.
  • Shops that want a fixed, non-mobile console installation rather than a movable unit.

GEOLINER® 678 vs. Hunter Engineering — How We Compare

What Shops Compare Hofmann GEOLINER® 678 Hunter Engineering (comparable configuration)
Price $24,995 — one price, complete package ~$25,400–$25,900 list* for a similarly configured system
Product structure Complete fixed package — everything included at one price Modular — build your own system from a console and sensor package
Imaging technology XD camera system with Compensate/Warn/Alert guidance HawkEye imaging sensors, selected separately from the console
Portable/mobile option available Yes — GEOLINER® 678/770 step-up models No true portable tier — "mobile" units roll bay-to-bay within one shop only
Support Alamo Equipment & Service — same people you call for setup, service, and warranty questions Dealer-network model, varies by region

*Hunter does not publish public retail list prices. This figure is drawn from a published third-party government contract price sheet (dated December 2025) for a comparable single-console Hunter aligner configuration with ADAS scan tool included — actual dealer pricing to independent shops may vary. Hunter's advanced HawkEye Elite imaging sensor packages, a closer technical match to the GEOLINER®'s camera system, list at approximately $45,000–$52,000 in the same source — roughly double the price of Hofmann's comparable-generation imaging technology.
