One focus of this years Automechanika was the subject of digitization. As well as alternative
networking technologies, in particular about the question of how the aftermarket can prepare on
this trend in the future. The customer want access personal content that is stored somewhere in
the cloud while driving. They want to retrieve the social media, surf on World Wide Web and
simultaneously initiate the first steps in the case of a technical error.
For us as workshop supplier equipment a great possiblity to tie on this trend. Needed are
intelligent, software-based solutions for more efficient diagnosis. In the Automechanika we have
presented some of our new products. Products that allow the driver access to internet, remote
diagnosis and fault management like iCard, MD4myCar or the new X-431 PAD. Attached you
will find some impressions of Automechanika 2012.
