Tire Tread Check
Using laser technology, the Tire Tread application analyzes the wear of the
tires on vehicles with no need to remove the tires. Place the tool on the tire,
the tool projects a laser beam and the image will be captured by a 4cm macro-
lens camera.
The wear measurement is then sent to the display screen with an accuracy
within 0.1mm. Measurements are also displayed graphically.
The Tire Tread application provides two types of checks:
“All Treads” and
“Single.” When using this application, a message will display prompting user
to choose between the current mode the alternative one. You can configure
your default check mode under Check Settings. Refer to
page 28 for additional information.
