July 15, 2016—Chief Automotive Technologies announced Thursday that it will showcase several of its products at the 2016 NACE/CARS Expo & Conference that are designed to repair lighter-weight materials such as aluminum, carbon fiber and high-strength steel used in many of today’s new vehicles. 

At booth No. 215, Chief will display the Globaljig Presented by Chief Koala bench with the LaserLock Live Mapping. Representatives will demo Chief joining equipment periodically during the show. Aluminum repair equipment will also be on display, including the Chief Fume Extractor, Dust Extractor and MultiMig 511 welder. 

“As vehicle design and repair methods evolve, collision professionals must invest in new tools, equipment and training to properly repair the latest vehicles,” said Bob Holland, director of collision sales in North and South America for Chief parent company Vehicle Service Group (VSG). “NACE provides us the opportunity to showcase the equipment that shops need to help them grow and prosper in the future, as well as the support provided by our local distributors like Southern California Collision Equipment.”
