Autel, a leading developer, manufacturer, and distributor of professional automotive diagnostic tools and equipment, has released its latest Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) calibration solution. The MaxiSYS IA700 ADAS calibration frame system offers a modular, compact design with advanced capabilities, including wheel alignment pre-check, optical positioning, and unlevel floor compensation.
The versatility of the IA700 sets it apart from any other calibration system in the industry. It’s a highly adaptable system equally suited for mobile technicians and every type of service shop—glass, mechanical, and collision. Regardless of calibration volume, technician expertise, shop space, and business model, technicians and shop owners will find superior value and return on investment with this system.
“We couldn’t be more excited about bringing the IA700 to market. With the IA700, we have taken the best attributes of previous systems—the compactness and mobile attribute of the MA600 mobile frame, the wheel alignment precheck and optical positioning of the IA800, and the unlevel floor compensation and holistic approach to vehicle repair and calibration of the IA900 and the MaxiSYS diagnostic platform—and created a new industry standard,” said Stewart Peregrine, senior executive of ADAS sales at Autel.
The IA700 system provides industry-leading vehicle and safety system coverage and a repeatable, streamlined diagnostic, alignment inspection, repair, and service workflow, enabling shop technicians to offer their customers the most comprehensive, key-to-key vehicle servicing.

A robotic crossbar with six high-definition tracking cameras makes the frame effortlessly efficient. These cameras enable target positioning and prompt unlevel floor compensation. Though substantial in build, the frame quickly disassembles for transport or space-saving storage.
The IA700’s advanced features include alignment pre-check, optical target-to-vehicle placement, unlevel floor compensation, and Guided ADAS.
Alignment Pre-Check
Proper alignment is crucial for vehicles with Advanced Driver Safety Systems (ADAS). The IA700 Pre-Check feature uses the frame-embedded six high-definition camera systems and the targeted wheel clamps to determine the current alignment specifications and compare them with the vehicle manufacturer’s accepted tolerances.
Optical Positioning
The precise positioning of a camera calibration pattern, target, or radar calibrator to the vehicle is vital to successfully calibrating any ADAS component. The IA700 optical positioning system uses the same camera and target method as the Pre-Check feature, plus the tablet positioning software to recognize the positioning targets and calculate the current angle, distance, and offset position of the frame to the vehicle.
