About TireSenso

There is a burning need to track and monitor the most mobile asset in a fleet ‘The Tire’. As the fleet size increases the problem of keeping track of the tyres worsen. Inspite of genuine effort from the fleet operator, still the concern about the security of the tires is always haunting the transporter.

Also as tires constitutes to the 2nd highest component of cost in the total cost incurred in running the vehicle, it is equally important to get the maximum running and maximum life’s (multiple remoulds) from the tires.
The only solution for control on your tires and optimum utilization of the tire, it is required to monitor the tire on regular basis.

The current practice for monitoring the tyres is by noting the tyre numbers mentioned on the tyres sidewall on a record book, with the tyre position, air pressure and the thread depth. After taking the data the same has to be punched into a software application to know whether the wearing out of tyre is as expected or there has been more wearing of tyre than expected. The entire process is cumbersome due to which at times the process is half done and thus the whole purpose of recording the tyre details is defeated.

A solution has been designed by using RFID tags to address all the challenges faced in recording the tyre details from the vehicle. With the help of RFID tags identification of the tyres is very quick, accurate and without data recorders interference as the data is recorded electronically. Also with a simple interface between the RFID reader and the software the data is posted directly into the software application, thus reduces the effort of entering the data into the system.

Benefits of Using RFID-TT
1.Identification of the tyres on the vehicle is accurate and fast.
2.Data is electronically recorded thus no possibility of manipulation of the data.
3.As the data is recorded and send to the main database, the verification of the tyres can be done immediately without going to the software application. The person recording the data can verify the data with the actual data in database from the application itself.
4.The identification of the tyres can be done anywhere and the data can be seen immediately in your office, as the entire data is uploaded instantly into the main database.
5. A regular audit of the tyres on the vehicles ensures low possibility of theft of tyres.
As the tyres are identified electronically any missing tyres is highlighted immediately.
