At Automechanika 2024 in Frankfurt, Wibotec showcased the latest technological breakthroughs. New CobraXpro systems for both glass repair and window replacement have been developed, which ensure that Wibotec holds on to the yellow jersey in terms of technology and user-friendliness.
Glass repair
The big news in glass repair is our brand new automatic pressure/vacuum pump (K4200I-3). Furthermore, the so-called supplement kits have been added, which make it easy for all users of CobraXpro repair systems to expand/update the kits with the latest technology.

The automatic pressure/vacuum pump is rechargeable – just like our three versions of the repair bridges and drills. All sets are therefore fully mobile and only require power when charging. The automatic pressure/vacuum pump switches in a 6-minute process between applying 2 bar pressure followed by vacuum. With this method, you ensure both optimal filling, but also extraction of any air bubbles in the stone chip. Watch our video with the automatic pump here…
Both pressure and vacuum can also be applied manually – and all sets still include our design-protected pressure and vacuum piston along with a syringe.

All major systems have for some time been delivered in our new suitcase with a removable insert. The insert, which contains all the necessary tools and consumables to perform stone chip repairs, can be easily placed on a vehicle’s windshield or bonnet. On the back, the insert is equipped with suction cups so that it cannot slip off the window or scratch the body paint.

Window replacement
There is also exciting news in the field of window replacement. We have succeeded in improving our cut-out K4500C-1B in several areas. The new K4500C-2B has larger guide wheels added to the cutting line and an adjustment option with two advantages. Larger guide wheels result in a larger contact surface and thus relief of the cutting wire. The diameter of the wheels has been increased from 17 to 30 mm, which has almost doubled the surface for possible relief of the cutting wire.

With the new adjustment option, it has become easier to achieve the best possible position of the guide wheels in relation to window corners, so that the angle of the cutting wire is optimal. In addition, if space is limited, the adjustment option can be used to ensure smooth switching on of the screwdriver without having to move the cutter/cut-out.

The website and CobraXpro Academy
The website has been optimized in a wide range of areas. We have both changed the way you navigate around the site, but also added extended product information on products where relevant.
At the same time, we have launched our CobraXpro Academy, where registration takes place via the website. Our CobraXpro Academy is for you who need help with our systems – as well as you who are just curious about what is going on within the framework of CobraXpro. As a member of our CobraXpro Academy, you get access to:
