OTR Engineered Solutions plans to offer Pressure Systems International’s (P.S.I.) TireView system in its line of pneumatic tire and wheel assemblies to monitor tire pressures and provide telematics.
OTR will also integrate the technology for OEM customers, helping manufacturers to implement the product into their equipment offerings.
According to OTR, the TireView offering includes sensors that detect pressure and temperature in each tire. Real-time data can be viewed on an optional in-cab display, through a smartphone app or on the dash of a vehicle, allowing drivers to verify correct inflation and overall tire health. OTR says alerts quickly point out potential issues.
Additionally, OTR says fleet managers and rental centers can view tire and location data remotely through the TireView Live portal to track their vehicle assets and monitor tires.
“P.S.I. recognizes OTR as a leading innovator when it comes to off-the-road tire and wheel technologies and is proud to partner with them to offer TireView’s TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) sensors to their customer base,” says Craig Smith, vice president of marketing and communications at P.S.I. “Real-time tire pressure and temperature alerts are important for vehicles of all types and configurations, and with the addition of TireView Live telematics, OTR and P.S.I. can now offer a fleet-wide solution for tire management.”
Adds Ben Brown, global vice president of OEM sales and marketing at OTR: “OTR is excited to announce our relationship with P.S.I. in the off-highway space. Pairing that with OTR’s robust tire design, wheel manufacturing and mounting capabilities creates added value for our customers.”
