As vehicle measurement tolerances become tighter, and with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) on today’s vehicles heightening the importance of accurate measurements, I-CAR created a course that details portable measuring systems.
The course is broken down into three categories:
- Introduction to measuring during damage analysis
- Types of measuring tools
- Benefits of 3D measuring
Introduction to measuring during damage analysis details:
- Why we need to measure
- Discovery process
- Improved cycle time and touch time
Types of measuring tools:
- Tram bar and tape measure
- 3D laser measuring systems
- 3D articulating arm measuring systems
- 3D photographic measuring
- Electronic measuring arm
- Mobile articulating arm
Technical demonstration videos on these 3D measuring systems:
- The Matrix Wand
- Car-O-Liner PointX
- Spanesi Touch
Understanding what types of portable measuring systems are available, their benefits, and understanding how to use them, will equip you with the knowledge you need to help perform a complete, safe, and quality repair.
