Automatic tyre inflation system technology

April 30th 2006 11:04
Despite that the Automatic tyre inflation system is not a brand new technology, is not well known by many people. Nowadays that the society in general has a rising concern about environmental issues, this particular technology represents a huge impact in the industry. The logistics activities impact the environment by dropping gas emissions and by consuming petrol and tyres, these effects can be reduced by the implementation of this technology. Cost reduction can be generated for the companies by reducing tire costs, preventing roadside downtime, extending tread life, increasing fuel efficiency and enabling longer maintenance intervals.


According to Aircargo an automatic tyre inflation system maker, the system checks inflation levels for each tire at the valve stem so as not to extend the tire pressure out to the hub. With the system, if a hose is leaking, the system will alert the driver and the tire will continue to fill with air and not go flat. Simply remove the bad hose and the other tires will remain serviced by the system.
