ADAS
Ready for Launch
Launch Tech USA introduced the new X-431 ADAS HD, a multi-system ADAS calibration stand for commercial vehicles. With an aluminum alloy body, the ADAS stand is light yet durable, according to the company. The X-431 ADAS HD features three configurations that allow for convenience and flexibility: fully-folded, partially-folded and fully-extended. The fully-folded configuration is convenient for equipment storage and handling, partially-folded is helpful for equipment movement, while the fully-extended configuration assists calibration.
Upon placing the equipment, the ADAS HD stand can be fine-tuned horizontally, left/right, and front/back to ensure the target can be placed accurately. The stand height of the ADAS HD reaches up to three meters. The ADAS HD supports ADAS system calibrations for International, Volvo and Sinotruk.

Tools
Repair with The Rezinator
Panther Pro offers a new product for repairing glass impacts. The Rezinator is powered by a 12v cigar socket type cable. The pad heats up in under 60 seconds, giving a localized increase in glass temperature that allows the resin to penetrate the crack without overheating. To use, place the pad over the impact site on the inside of the glass. The vibrating function offers a solution to stubborn bubbles, designed to vibrate at a specific frequency to shift hard-to-move air pockets.
