New tyre-pressure monitoring system allows users to swiftly react to situations in the field

INTERNATIONAL OTR tyre manufacturers Magna Tyres have launched their own in-house TPMS system, providing yet another additional service for the Netherlands-based company’s ever-increasing global customer base.

Hein De Wind, commercial director at Magna Tyres, said: ‘In line with the company’s dedicated objective of operating beyond the conventional role of a tyre producer by constantly looking at new ways to get the absolute maximum out of our tyres, the introduction of our own meticulously crafted and comprehensive TPMS solution will perfectly align with our customers specific needs and provide an even closer collaboration with Magna.’

 

Magna TPMS offers real-time tyre pressure and temperature monitoring with alerts on moderate and extreme readings, 24h a day, seven days a week, even when the machine is unpowered.

The system allows users to swiftly react to situations in the field by identifying problems early on and providing a prompt solution. Automatic emails of actions required can be sent from the system to the appropriate person within an organization and can be easily linked to a desktop version as well as a mobile app (IOS/Android).

Thanks to a GPS location tracking feature, the system monitors distance/hours travelled for tyre usage statistics, whilst other features and benefits include specialized valve sensors that continuously measure all the important information needed to run a smooth operation, including pressure, heat, and speed.

The Magna Gateway is at the heart of all information measured and gathered by the sensors, which can then, via CAN-bus, be transmitted in real time, helping fleet managers to oversee maintenance and detect early issues for prompt corrective actions and thereby reducing downtime and improving efficiency.

Saving time on pressure checks, meeting legal requirements, highlighting potential problems, and preventing exceeding of load capacities, the system monitors every move and every statistic of an entire fleet, no matter when or where in the world it is operating.

Mr De Wind concluded: ‘The introduction of Magna TPMS will effectively enable our customers to monitor their tyre performance, leading to increased mileage performance and further improved Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). It is the next natural development in our close partnership with our customers to ensure working with Magna tyres is always highly successful.’
