A unique offer

4 February 2013  

GETECH manufacture MOT equipment and try to create modular product groups when possible so customers can purchase one item, such as a brake tester, to begin with and expand in the future if need be to a one-person ATL. Further upgrades are then available to facilitate motorcycle testing if required. The firm believes it has something to offer which is rather unique – it provides a non-PC based ATL, which it says has many benefits to users even if, on first appearance, it seems like a step backwards! Like in the case of its brake tester, all calculations are made internally by the brake tester and not externally on an ‘office spec’ PC, which is vulnerable to crashes and hard drive failures. No console is needed on the workshop floor – a display can be wall-mounted in the best place, if it needs to connect to a secondary PC system, this can be done via Bluetooth. This philosophy has been used for its MOT system which utilises a standalone combined emissions analyser with an on-board PLC (Power Line Carrier).
