The “Tyre thickness” module is the expansions of the wheel profile measurement module. In additional to the wheel profile measurement, this module also allows for the measurement of the tyre thickness of all common tyre types in a matter of seconds. A magnetic supporting gauge (RD gauge) is used to perform the measurement. Depending on the condition of the wheel, the gauge can be placed either on the inner or the outer abutting face or the wear limit groove. Different RD gauges are available and the two types are included in this module offering. If the inner diameter of the tyre is known, the rolling circle can be calculated on the basis of the tyre thickness values. All of the measured variables are displayed on the sensor and tablet PC within a few seconds. These results can then be compared automatically with your organization’s reference values.
