Snap-on adds thermal imaging inspection checklist
Snap-on has added a thermal imaging inspection checklist to its website, giving automotive technicians a resource to streamline inspections and more.
Available as a downloadable PDF, the checklist can be easily printed and used to document customer information, vehicle details, and service dates while guiding technicians through a complete thermal inspection.
Thermal imaging technology detects heat generated by friction, electrical resistance, pressure changes, and other operating conditions, enabling technicians to locate faults faster and with more confidence.
The Diagnostic Thermal Imager+ captures detailed images featuring 4,800 distinct temperature measurement zones and can detect temperatures up to 840 degrees F. Combined with a database of automotive applications, guided tests, and reference images, the tool helps technicians interpret results, reduce diagnostic time, and improve shop productivity.
