Frame and Body Departments

Our body shop's frame and auto body repair departments are well equipped with all the necessary modern equipment that allows D&M Auto Body to provide quality collision repairs on today's complex vehicles including:

Celette frame repair bench.To be able to properly perform structural repairs on high-end European vehicles, a Celette dedicated frame machine is required by most vehicle manufacturers. D&M Auto Body is one of the few shops that utilizes this machine in our area. The Celette machine also allows us to properly perform complicated structural aluminum repairs on BMW's.

*Two drive on Dataliner frame machines capable of multiple pulls.  Full frame and uni-body vehicles can be structurally realigned on these machines.  Primarily used for larger collision repairs.

*Four Blackhawk Power-Lok work stalls for minor structural alignment repairs.  These work stalls allow D&M technicians to continue working on smaller collision repairs without waiting for the completion of a larger repair to be removed from one of our drive on machines.

*Chief Velocity computerized/Laser measuring system.  Today's vehicle structures are manufactured from lightweight high strength steel designed to "fold up" in a collision to protect the vehicle occupants.  There are many crush zones designed throughout the entire vehicle structure.  Crush zones allow structural panels to bend or collapse a pre-determined area which absorbs a large percentage of the collision impact force. 

Repairing a vehicle that has been involved in a medium to large collision requires the complete vehicle structure to be accurately measured.  Even in a front end collision the impact force could cause a section of the rear body to be out of place.  Unless the complete vehicle is accurately measured, the rear damage could go unnoticed and remain damaged.

Pro-Spot PR-2000 inverter and mig welding system mounted on an overhead track covering our entire body and frame department.  With this type of inverter welder, D&M Auto Body can duplicate the original vehicle manufacturer's welds in terms of strength and appearance when replacing welded body parts.

Eurovac central vacuum sanding system covering all our of body shop's work areas.  Besides from making it a healthier environment for employees, using this vacuum system minimizes the amount of sanding dust accumulation in your or other vehicles during auto body collision repairs.

 

 

Refinish Department

Our auto body shop uses our two Garmat down draft paint booths to refinish vehicles and allow D&M Auto Body to reproduce the original finish of your vehicle.  Our spray booths introduce completely filtered air from above the vehicle and exhausts the spray mist and fumes from below.  This process minimizes any dust particles from the air, which cause imperfections in the paint surface.  After the painting process is completed, the spray booth goes into a bake mode.  This process cures the paint film, producing a factory like finish in both appearance and durability.

*Garmat double vehicle preparation area.  Prior to your vehicle entering our paint booth for application of paint, all sanding is done on this paint preparation platform.  This unit is complete with color corrective lights for paint color tinting prior to application.  These lights also aid our refinish technicians when examining the areas to be refinished for imperfections.

*Overhead Spectratek infra-red curing lamp.  This curing lamp is installed in the paint preparation area and allows D&M Auto Body to cure primed repair areas of your vehicle in as little as ten minutes.  No longer is an overnight wait time required before sanding and refinishing.

*BASF paint mixing system that provides computerized paint color formulas for all domestic and imported vehicles.  When needed on difficult or unknown colors, this system incorporates a computerized "eye" that when held on your vehicles finish, reproduces a paint color formula that is similar to your vehicles color.
