The Coronavirus pandemic gave many bodyshop operators a chance to reassess their workshop operations over the spring and summer months and look for new ways to boost efficiency. Equipment specialist Car-O-Liner has been able to provide assistance in this area with the CTR9 fully automatic welding system which is proving a popular choice with repairers.

This is a powerful new generation of welder which features a light-weight transformer gun, with 355° swivel handle and ergo-grip for incredible flexibility. This enables the operator to achieve the perfect working position for any job. The gun is supported by a telescopic arm in a durable and lightweight extruded aluminium that can be easily adjusted both vertically and horizontally. A compact power unit with a low centre of gravity gives mobility and stability, while a 16,000-amp transformer and CANBUS communication ensure a perfect weld every time.

Car-O-Liner representative in Ireland Theo English says, “The CTR9 is becoming the bodyshop’s best friend as it can totally transform the welding process making it faster, easier and more efficient. Bodyshops that use it for the first time wonder how they ever managed without it and never look back.”

Theo says that following COVID restriction, equipment maintenance and calibrations services are available and anyone requiring assistance should call him on 087 966 1320.
