An Indiana company, responding to the growing use of aluminum in automotive applications, offers training in aluminum forming methods and metal characteristics.
The one-day course, Aluminum Damage Analysis and Repair Technology, is offered by Chief University. It also addresses damage analysis, repair decisions and techniques for working with vehicle components made of aluminum.
‟With the launch of the aluminum-intensive Ford F-150 pickup truck and announcements from other OEMs that they will be using more aluminum in their new vehicles, it is important that industry professionals understand how to properly analyze and repair vehicles that include aluminum components,” says Ken Boylan, global training manager for Chief University, the training arm of Chief Automotive Technologies of Madison, IN.
Nine classes offering classroom and hands-on training are scheduled around the country for the first half of 2015. The course fee is $325.
