When choosing a spotter, the most important factors to consider are the type of body material you will be working with, the required power and the type of body pulling and dent repair work you plan to perform. A conventional spotter is recommended for repairing steel body panels, while aluminium components require a specialised ALU spotter.
For steel body repair, we recommend the LOTA Industries SPOTTER 3 kW, 6800 A. This versatile 220 V machine features 77 operating programs and is suitable for dent pulling, welding pulling elements and working with carbon electrodes. Its 6800 A peak current and comprehensive accessory set make it suitable for both professional body repair workshops and smaller garages.
For aluminium body repair, choose the LOTA Industries ALU SPOT 1.5 kW, 11,000 A. This specialised 220 V machine is designed for working with aluminium body panels and M3–M6 studs. It is recommended for professional workshops repairing aluminium body components commonly used in modern vehicles.
In short: for steel – SPOTTER 3 kW, 6800 A; for aluminium – ALU SPOT, 11,000 A. If your workshop repairs both steel and aluminium body panels, these two machines complement each other and provide a practical, versatile setup for a wide range of professional body repair applications.
