    ARLINGTON, Texas (Feb. 17, 2017) — Allpart Supply Inc. has opened a training center for wheel balancing and automotive lift owners, operators and employees in Arlington.

    The newly opened center recently hosted its first training program in partnership with the Tire Industry Association (TIA), as part of TIA's Certified ATS Advanced Instructor Training Tour.

    The training at the new facility was a level 400 certification program which focuses on the passenger car and light truck segment. Training is made up of 15 subject modules on all aspects of general tire servicing, including raising the vehicle, wheel balancing and run out, demounting and mounting, torque and clamping force, TPMS diagnostics, and relearn procedures.

    "This is highly-specialized and valuable training that is cutting edge in the automotive service industry," TIA's director of training Christine Hoogenboom said in a news release."What Allpart Supply has introduced is a tremendous resource for shop owners and employees."

    The Allpart Automotive Training Center trains both mechanics and tire educators whose scope ranges from large dealerships to tire shops, the company said.

    TIA trainer Jason Marshall provides practical instruction for participants in Certified ATS Advanced Instructor Training at Allpart's Hands-On Shop Training Center in Arlington, Texas.

    Allpart said its training center is a natural fit for TIA's education and training efforts. The center offers site-based executive training, instructor training, and shop-level mechanic training on best practices in wheel servicing and automotive lift maintenance and care.

    The center will host TIA's upcoming Certified Commercial Tire Service training session, which will cover 18 modules focused on commercial tire service.

    While the Allpart Training Center is an official TIA training facility, the center also is available throughout the year to other organizations and automotive service providers, the company said.

    Trainees at the Allpart Training Center divide their time between a classroom with dedicated audiovisual support and the Hands-On Shop Training Center, located separately on the property.

    The Hands-On Shop Training Center is designed specifically for group training and offers garage equipment, including a Corghi balancer and tire changer for passenger cars and light truck demonstrations, a Corghi balancer and tire changer for heavy-duty applications, Haweka adapters and wheel balancer tooling, two- and four-post automotive lifts, and AME International tools and equipment, the company said.

    The shop facility is equipped with heat for winter days and large bay doors for cross-ventilation in warm weather, Allpart said.

    "We are working to further strengthen our position as industry experts and the best source of information and solutions for automotive dealers, operators (repair shop owners), and mechanics alike. This revolutionary training facility is one way to demonstrate our commitment to the automotive repair community," said Bruce Hartin, owner of Allpart Supply.
