Chassis
shaping for four-wheel drive vehicles
Before carrying out a repair on a four-wheel drive vehicle, we
must produce a diagnosis of the damage present. To do this, we
must follow a definite sequence, until we locate the deformation
in question: arrow, diamond, twist, level loss, tipping or compression.

 A
question of base
Applying the right process of base
coats solves aluminium´s problem with adhesion.
Until relatively recently, car
bodies were almost entirely made from steel. In fact, the products
and processes recommended by paint manufacturers were oriented
around this type of materials. The need to curb fuel consumption
has led to the use of elements which bring down the total weight
of the vehicle, such as plastics and aluminium alloys. The chemical
make-up of these materials calls for small but important changes
which have forced the paint manufacturers to introduce new products
and paint processes.

 NISSAN
ATLEON
ATLEON is the name that Nissan has chosen
to give to its new range of trucks, which they have produced in
order to satisfy current needs for light and semi-heavy transport.
Agility and strength are two concepts that the manufacturer wants
to transmit with the name of its new truck, which is a combination
of the nouns "Athlete" and "Lion". The truck
has an attractive design, with modern rounded lines, together
with the functionality provided by the high level of its outfitting,
make this truck a high quality place for the short and medium
distance hauler to work in.

 The
X-ray of an accident.
The investigation into road traffic accidents contributes to their
speedy and efficient solution.
The repercussions of road traffic accidents
is a particularly important social problem. Despite public and
private organism´s increasing involvement, running campaigns
to raise public awareness, there are daily repetitions of collisions
between vehicles, pedestrians are knocked down or hit, and vehicles
go off the road. Each of these incidents is followed up by a process
of investigation and clarification of the accident, which normally
is settled by a legal resolution. Cesvimap is a pioneer in road
traffic accident research and reconstruction.
