TVTRACK Software
Posted by Tim on April 11, 2006
We provide tyre maintenance services to city buses around the Bangkok area, Thailand and also to our own company’s city buses. We set up 20 depots to service more than 1,500 buses of these two fleets. As you know the nature of running city bus is “go and stop” all along the route. The heat generated by this nature may be one of those factors that cause damages to and shorten the using life of the tyres, tubes and flaps. We also do the retreading for all used tyres so we can reuse them until end of their life cycles. We are searching for some other methods to prolong the using period of tyres, tubes and flap.
It would be very much appreciated if you can provide us some more information as follows:
We have to keep record of all the using tyres in order to analyze their mileages and other factors. We have heard about Goodyear’s TVTRACK software. This software seems to provide a lot of tire data collections. How would we be able to get more detailed information on this program? How much does it cost?
TVTrack is a software program that allows you to imput tire/vehicle data. It will summarize the data by wheel position, brand, type, inflation pressure, etc. Over the years, many fleets have found it very useful to help manage the tires in the fleet and help make decisions from facts. To obtain this software, contact Mike Gilchrist at Goodyear either by calling 330 796 6543 or e-mail him at mjgilchrist@goodyear.com.
