Tyrata, a tire sensor and data management company, announced its Tyrata.io system, a cloud-based, comprehensive data portal for its IntelliTread tire tread monitoring products. 

The company billed Tyrata.io as an easy-to-use, interactive portal that works in combination with Tyrata's Drive-Over System to provide direct tire measurement and real-time tread wear analysis for large vehicle fleets. The system fully automates tread depth measurements and analytics needed for efficient tire management and safe vehicle operation. The company said the solution has no hardware cost and is deployed within hours with no impact to current fleet operations.

Tyrata said the IntelliTread Drive-Over System was developed based on the unmet need for low-cost, easy-to-deploy tire tread monitoring in both passenger and commercial vehicle fleets. The Drive-Over System collects tire tread wear data when a vehicle drives over a speedbump-like unit. Now that data will be linked to Tyrata.io, a cloud-based data analytics platform to inform service and depot managers about the actual condition of their tires in real time.

By logging into their account at Tyrata.io, fleet operators can open a secure data portal where they can monitor the health of any individual tire and obtain instant tire history and analytics at a click of a button. Operators can also get comprehensive, fleet-wide tire wear status and service recommendations for optimized tire maintenance and optimal vehicle safety.

Regular tire tread monitoring enhances data accuracy and provides clear tread wear trends, allowing the fleet operator to focus on tires that require service. With a DOS deployed at a vehicle service depot, Tyrata's new data portal provides visualization of tire condition of the entire fleet, along with a daily or weekly report on any tires requiring maintenance.

Predictive analytics are also available for improved management of tires across the fleet. Outputs from the data portal can also be integrated with customer's existing reporting and maintenance systems, the company said in a statement.

"The Tyrata data portal provides comprehensive tire data management, data visualization and maintenance analytics that is very easy for our customers to use," said Luka Lojk, Tyrata's VP of sales and marketing. "Within a few hours of deployment, our customers can be up and running, collecting tread data on all their vehicles, with no impact on fleet operations, positioning them to make data-driven maintenance decisions that optimize resources and improve safety."
