Matrix Wand has launched FenderBolt, a repair analysis software and online training platform.
FenderBolt provides Matrix Wand users with many key benefits, including:
- Mitchell reference data
- Matrix repair analysis software
- Ability to collect and store your own measuring data
- Wand usage reports for shop owners
- Technical support (by phone or online)
- I-CAR online training courses to ensure Wand proficiency
As cloud-based measuring software, FenderBolt uses photogrammetry to output three-dimensional measurements. By uploading static images of collision damage into the software, infinite measuring data points can be selected from that image, which allows infinite measuring across the entirety of the vehicle and includes measuring through solid objects. The software, integrated with the Mitchell reference database, compares points to factory specifications, or can utilize comparative measuring to build its own data.
FenderBolt’s I-CAR online training courses provide ease of training and retraining. Matrix Wand users can easily access and complete online training modules during “non-production” times, keeping their shops moving forward. After completion of the training, users can earn six credit hours towards their I-CAR status. Non-Matrix Wand users can also register for online training and receive up to one credit hour by visiting fenderbolt.com and registering the promo code “MTX2020.”
The online training platform covers the following topics:
- Wand system and overview: Care and handling of the Wand and how to operate the tool
- Matrix Wand applications: Learn about application errors, Mitchell reference data, selecting points, navigating applications, opening FenderBolt and how to start a project
- XYZ comparative measuring: Explore the different types of measurements that can be completed with the Matrix Wand
- Storing assets: Learn how to store assets, specifically documentation and the reference library.
