They say profit is moving in the wrong direction...
Want to do ADAS? Do alignments too. Want to do alignments? Do ADAS too.
Time to complete the circle.

That’s the thing about high-tech systems. Any single thing can affect another, and everything matters.
When it comes to ADAS, calibrations usually begin with an alignment. Why? Because if the vehicle isn’t going straight, neither is the ADAS.
Cameras and radar operate like a flashlight beam. The further out on the cone you go, the more a tiny inaccuracy becomes a giant one. The system will see things that don’t matter and miss those that do. So it pays to be right from the start.
But speaking of right from the start: If ADAS goes hand in glove with alignments, any reason why alignments can’t go hand in glove with ADAS?
Because if you’re already doing alignments – you surely are; a lot of them – it’s a logical progression to be ready to perform calibrations while you’re at it.
The vehicle is right there. You’ve almost certainly got the space, since the vast majority of static calibrations involve forward-facing elements. Dynamic calibrations require no space at all. The actual calibrating is straightforward and not at all complicated.
Why donate this profitable work to someone else when you don’t have to?
And you don’t have to. You’ve already got the aligner. The next step is a very manageable investment in an ADAS scan tool for dynamic resets. Soon you’ll be ready for some targets and static calibrations.
And just like that, you’re in the ADAS business. Which is a good place to be, since this work is going to grow and grow and grow. It’s there waiting for you right now.
When this time comes for your business,Hunter Engineering will be there to help you with the necessary equipment, training and continual support.
