TST – TriScan Tire

360° Measurementsystem for Tires and Rims

The TST is the international standard system for checking finished tires and rims. It is designed for 3D tread analysis, tread measurements and the Recording of a 2D cross-section profile with dimensions of distance, thickness, angles and radii for passenger cars and truck tires. Our system uses strong and precise mechanical components with an accurate Laser sensor to measure the tire. The system allows cross-section measurements of from bead to bead with sidewall analysis, lateral and radial run-out, heel & toe measurements, running surface wear measurements and surface frequency evaluations.

The 3D mapping function enables wear analyses and predicts the service life of a tire by continuously measuring and comparing the decreasing tread depth. With just a few measurements at different mileages, the total tire mileage can already be extrapolated. Automobile manufacturers, tire developers and test centers use the TriScan Tire for their product classification and development, as well as for quality assurance and final sampling inspection.

The concept includes a point laser triangulation sensor, a driven wheel holder for centric mounting of the measuring objects (tyres & rims) and a three-axis sensor positioning unit. Countless analysis, calculation and visualization functions for the profile evaluation of new and used tires make the TST what it is, an established, user-friendly and representative measuring method, as it is appreciated by its users.
