Class IV ATL Bay

What to look for in Automated Test Lanes (ATL’s)
VOSA have introduced the ATL to improve the quality and integrity of the MOT test. Equipment used must meet specific design and functional criteria before being approved or acceptable for use. Equipment that does not compromise performance, versatility or reliability can be expected to be justifiably expensive. If a lower cost option is pursued, check that it has an identifiable pedigree and is well supported now and for the future.

Major components of a traditional MOT facility have been supplemented or modified to meet ATL requirements.

Brake testers must be able to operate and assess vehicle brakes automatically and to a visually prompted procedure. The results will be used in conjunction with a weighing system to provide true, actual brake efficiency values.

Play detection equipment must be provided with the lift or pit that will place the vehicle suspension under a known and consistent level of duress.

Headlamp testers must be able to provide clear images of the headlamp beam for all current vehicle types, including hi-energy (Xenon) or complex headlamp systems (beams shaped by the reflector).

It is feasible for an ATL type MOT test to be carried out by one person.To achieve this, the mandatory equipment requirements also include a brake pedal depressor and system of mirrors to enable the examiner to view all aspects of a vehicle from a single position.
