IAEA hosts Car-o-liner at Ace Autobody

The Institute of Automotive Engineers & Assessors (IAEA) hosted a very informative evening on current and new collision repair equipment techniques at Ace Autobody in Fairview, on Thursday night.

Stuart Alexander of Car-o-liner demonstrated the company’s Point X diagnostic measuring tool and, PNP 90, the company’s universal riveting tool to a packed audience.

PointXTM derives its strength from new generation technology, both in the hand-held measuring
arm and software. The lightweight, efficient and easy to use measuring arm, in combination with Car-O-Data, the world’s most comprehensive vehicle database, gives you an affordable measuring system that allows you to accurately and quickly target measuring points.
