Maximum precision over every meter for the tire industry

Tire manufacturers are under increasing pressure to meet higher quality standards. Meeting these standards can provide a significant competitive advantage. With proper weight control, quality defects are identified early in the production process, saving material and energy while ensuring high-quality intermediate and end products. Valuable production capacity is optimized and preserved. Implementing effective quality control systems from the very beginning of the tire tread production chain helps to minimize these risks, increase efficiency and ensure the delivery of high-quality, sustainable products.

Advanced Solutions for Accurate & Efficient Production

In the dynamic environment of tire manufacturing, precision and reliability are key to ensuring optimal product quality and minimizing production downtime. Our advanced weighing solutions offer a distinct advantage by overcoming several critical challenges that can occur with less robust systems.

Where today manufacturers have to deal with low accuracy and large measurement tolerances, our systems deliver precise results even in dynamic production processes and ensure consistent product quality. In addition, our technology has built-in vibration compensation, which eliminates the need for secondary isolation structures and significantly reduces installation time and complexity.

Unlike systems that are sensitive to material stresses or require frequent recalibration, our solutions are designed to maintain accuracy throughout the production process with minimal disruption. This results in less maintenance, less downtime and greater efficiency, so you can focus on maintaining high standards and maximizing your production output.

In addition to the systems for end-of-line quality inspection, we also offer our latest development from Wipotec, our HC-MWS meter weight scale. This scale provides reliable quality control of tire treads right in the extrusion process. In this way, we ensure consistently high quality and you can avoid spending more valuable ressources on completing a product that will not meet quality standards.

Choose a system that supports your production goals by providing reliable, high-precision performance without the need for constant manual adjustments or recalibrations.

Our advantages in a nutshell

  • Vibration compensation eliminates the need for a separate decoupled foundation
  • Insensitive to temperature fluctuations and tension in the material
  • We support tire manufacturers to comply within the accuracy specification range
  • High level of vertical integration in all components

What can Wipotec do for the tire industry?

  • Patented calibration function
  • Patented conveyor technology
  • EMFR instead of Strain Gauge
  • Tested to deliver unmatched precision
