RL Automotive operators of the TyreWatch system which monitors a fleet’s tyres for pressure and temperature 24/7 and in real time is set to exhibit at the CV Show at the NEC in Birmingham in April.

TyrewatchNot only does the driver see the tyre pressures and temperatures but they are uploaded to the web in real time where they can be monitored and automatic alerts issued. The system is linked to a GPS signal and so location and speed of vehicle can be monitored as well.

The importance of this is that the system will alert the fleet operator by email or text message to slow punctures and high temperatures which may be due to a braking problem.

TyreWatch is the only independent web-enabled tyre pressure monitoring system in UK. The system is specifically designed for logistics operations and works for both tractors and trailers/Buses/Coaches.

The UK Department of Transport has recognised its Importance in terms of safety, environmental emissions, vehicle uptime and overall reliability as an essential part of the autonomous vehicles of the future.

As a result of the success of the present system it will be fully funding TyreWatch’s R&D into telematics for commercial vehicles as part of this development.
