Tekscan High Speed TireScan System
Tekscan’s High Speed TireScanTM system captures the impact of speed, motion, and inertial forces on a tire at speeds up to 265 km/h (165 mph). The robust array of pressure sensing elements scans as fast as 20 kHz as the tire rolls across it. The software displays the tire patch and pressure distribution while in motion.
• Capture repeatable tire patch at velocities of up to 265 kmh
• Data collection procedure streamlines with test plan
• Lightweight wireless electronics & sensor can be retrofit to Flat Track machine or drum
• Wireless system control and data transfer
• Data can be analyzed in software or exported to ASCII
• Battery and TekDAQ mounting sleeves allow quick setup and easy removal
