On‑site tyre wear measurement and pressure alerting

Maintaining tyres in their optimal condition is a daily challenge for transport operators, workshops and service partners. Our solution provides accurate, fast and consistent tyre wear assessment, combined with reliable pressure alerting, helping fleets improve safety, reduce downtime and optimise costs: directly on site, every time the vehicle returns.

Up to 30% of truck breakdowns are tyre‑related, showing the critical need for systematic inspections:

(1)An average of 25% of tyre tread is unused at removal, meaning operators lose value due to premature demounting(2) LCVs fail their first roadworthiness test at twice the rate of cars, mainly due to tyres and brakes(3)

Discover our solution

Designed for fleets who need a simple, automated way to control tyre conditions onsite: improving safety and compliance, productivity and cost control, this solution provides fleets with an automated onsite tyre inspection based on the Michelin QuickScan patented technology. 

How does it work?


  1. Vehicles return to site
    Each time a vehicle enters the depot, it simply drives over the installed scanning area: no stopping or manual action required.  

  2. Tyres are measured automatically 
    Using patented electromagnetic technology, the system performs a nonintrusive measurement of remaining tread depth, providing accurate results in all weather conditions and even with dirty tyres.  

  3. Pressure related alerts are detected 
    In parallel, the system generates alerts when abnormal pressure conditions are identified, helping spot unsafe situations early. 

  4. Fleet teams view tyre condition at a glance 
    The dashboard provides clear visibility of tyre wear, pressure related alerts, and priorities for action across the entire fleet. 

The benefits for your fleet

Safety & Compliance 

Cost Control 

Productivity 

  • Increase and automate the frequency of tyre inspections, ensuring regular, objective checks across your fleet. 

  • Keep tyres operating safely and in full compliance with regulatory requirements. 

  • Reduce the risk of roadside tyre‑related issues, thanks to earlier detection of wear or pressure deviations. 

  • Extend tyre lifespan up to 9%(4) and reduce replacement costs by identifying issues before they accelerate wear. 

  • Optimise the timing of inspections and reduce damaged tyres by up to 70%(5). 

  • Save time by removing manual checks and relying on automated, consistent inspections at every vehicle return. 

  • Identify and plan maintenance schedules up to 60 days in advance(6), helping teams prioritise the right tasks at the right moment.

Because tyre issues remain a leading cause of roadside incidents: around 30% of truck breakdowns are tyre‑related. Regular, objective checks materially lower that risk. 

Fleets typically remove tyres with ~25% tread still unused—which means value is left on the table. Managing wear precisely helps extract the full value of each tyre and reduce replacements. 

Vehicles drive over a fixed scanning area; the system performs a non‑intrusive measurement of remaining tread depth and detects pressure anomalies; data is uploaded in real time to a single dashboard for action. 

No. Inspections are automatic at each return to site; the process is quick and removes the need for manual depth checks. 

The solution supports predictive planning up to 60 days in advance, so tyre interventions can be scheduled around operations, reducing unplanned immobilisation.
