Winnipeg, Manitoba — June 23, 2016 — Changes to repair procedures demand up-to-date information on the latest equipment and repair procedures. Rondex recently stepped up to help fill this need with an equipment showcase event to update repairers on advances in welding, measuring and innovative tools. The evening event was held at the MPI Training Centre in Winnipeg and drew in repairers and other industry stakeholders.
Darrin Jorowski is Regional Sales Director with Rondex. He discussed the need for events like this in an interview with Collision Repair magazine, outlining how new OEM certifications the materials used on today’s vehicles are driving change.
“We recognize that the industry has changed and continues to change,” he says. “That leads to a need for shops to get the right information on how to do repairs properly and with the right equipment. Filling that need was the real focus of the event. That’s part of the reason we had factory experts on-site to help answer any questions that came up during the demonstrations.”
The event included updates and equipment demonstrations from AMH Canada, Arslan Automotive demonstrating the Tecna welding line and demos of Spanesi’s Touch 3D measuring systems.
Andrew Shepherd of AIA Canada served as a special guest speaker. In part, Shepherd discussed the need for ongoing training. As technology advances, this need becomes even more critical to ensure cars receive safe, high-quality repairs.
