      • Jul 2012 - Present

      I am very excited to be involved in the development of new fixture sets for many automotive manufactures including FORD GM and Chrysler/Fiat. Using the NAJA electronic measuring system to VERIFY the OEM Factory supplied CAD drawings for building prototype fixture sets and then personally benching the vehicles on the fixtures. If it all fit's as expected, well the sets are put into production and distributed around the world for your repair needs. This huge responsibility gives me great pride. To be involved so deeply with such a serious development process, and knowing how important the accuracy required by the Auto manufacture and Celette must be for proper and safe repairs methods used presently and the evolving methods for the future as well. I feel It's the most important position in the entire process of building the fixtures. Also, as I test the prototype sets, I am allowed to give suggestions to any needed changes or holding points that a repair tech can enhance any particular fixture set under development. As a bonus to our customers from this kind of fixture data development, the data base used to build fixtures sets is passed on to the data base of the NAJA and E Guan measuring systems sold by Celette. Talk about accuracy in electronic measuring, You couldn't ask for a more accurate measuring system to repair a damaged vehicle and it is proven to me to be consistent. By using the exact measuring devise used to build our fixtures we can measuring your damaged car with original, factory verified data. No other company in the world can provide this for the end users. This is a cold hard fact that can not be disputed. It's so great to be able to say this knowing it is absolutely true. Show less
