CARSTAR Weldon Spring Doubles Daily Calibration Output 📈🔧

CARSTAR Weldon Spring is taking its ADAS calibration capabilities to the next level. Owner Kerry Woodson recently shared with Autobody News how bringing more calibration work in-house and opening a dedicated center to serve his two CARSTAR locations has transformed the process.

With Autel’s IA1000, calibration times that once took two to four hours have been reduced to approximately 30 minutes to an hour and a half, helping the team double its daily output.

From improving efficiency to gaining greater insight into the calibration process, see how this investment is making an impact across both locations.
