Hunter Engineering enhances connected equipment capabilities

Oct. 2, 2018
HunterNet provides real-time data to shops through equipment results, trends and management reports.

First introduced in 2002, HunterNet provides real-time data to shops through equipment results, trends and management reports; allowing businesses to be more productive and profitable through data-driven decisions, the company says.

Hunter’s autonomous alignment inspection system, Quick Check Drive, is connected with HunterNet. Alignment results are displayed automatically through Flightboard, a digital display of inspection readings that allows a customer to see results first-hand. Advisors can also review body damage-cam photos of vehicles, potentially saving shops thousands of dollars in questionable damage claims. Managers are able to generate inspection and opportunity reports as well.

With recent advancements, Hunter’s Road Force Elite wheel balancer is now also connected with HunterNet, allowing balancing trends, results and details to be easily reviewed virtually alongside with Hunter’s wheel alignment and inspection technology in HunterNet.

“When investing in new equipment, shops should strongly consider smart, connected equipment that provides real-time information to help customers and managers make informed, data-driven decisions,” said Hunter Engineering product manager Alan Hagerty.

HunterNet supports thousands of connected Hunter machines, which send tens of thousands of results every day.
