FLEETS now have a new tool for monitoring tire diagnostics through Bluetooth and wireless RFID technology.
The new combination of Advanced ID Corp’s Advanced ID/Pneu-Logic truck probe and Pro Saamya’s Tire-data Management System (TiMaS) allows fleets to eliminate paper-based recording by sending updated data directly to the fleet’s management database.
According to the company, TiMaS software works with mobile phones, PDAs, tablet and laptop computers and provides several benefits, including real-time automated tire data management and fewer on-the-road breakdowns, the companies said.
The complete solution includes the Bluetooth-enabled tire tread depth/pressure probe and the middleware that wirelessly links the tire data to the management database.
Dan Finch, Advanced ID president said the system provides for much improved information on the condition of tires and ensures the ability to optimize costs relating to tire management.
He said this includes saving money through improved fuel economy, longer tire life and fewer road breakdowns.
