NACE Automechanika 2017 Recap & Show Specials

NACE Automechanika 2017 featured 600 exhibiting companies, including Induction Innovations, and over 10,000 attendees in Chicago’s McCormick Center. Automechanika is known globally in the automotive aftermarket and NACE is strong in OE and collision. NACE and Automechanika joined forces this year to focus on training and product discovery and it was a fine show overall.

  • Collision Repair Education Foundation Golf Fundraiser
  • Collision Industry Conference (CIC)
  • Advanced Technology & Diagnostic Repair Forum
  • MSO Symposium
  • Business Outlook Conference
  • International Night

Several special areas of interest on the show floor:

We also visited with several of our distributors and users of our tools. We discussed new applications, did live demonstrations, offered a drawing for a Mini-Ductor 12V, handed out marketing materials, and learned about the future of the collision industry.
