The need for automation and a rise
in demand for fuel-efficient tires led to industrial manufacturing
transformation. According to Allied Market Research, the global advanced tires market is
projected to garner $1.35 billion by
2030, growing at a CAGR of 18.4%
from 2020 to 2030. The increase in automobile production, stringent regulation
toward vehicular emission, and concerns regarding fuel efficiency would be the
prime drivers for the market growth.
The advanced tires are made up of
carefully designed combinations of different types of materials. Moreover,
these tires are airless and thus, save the trouble of punctured tire. The most
attractive feature of the advanced tire is its grip, which is more secure than
conventional tires and it does not slip at higher speeds or on slippery roads. Furthermore,
the advanced tires have new technology embedded in them and it can sense the
condition of roads to maintain as well as improve its performance.
Rapid launches of novel tires
Recently, leading manufacturers
of advanced tires, Prometeon Tyre Group Commercial Solutions L.L.C. launched
truck tire series that is designed specifically for North American conditions.
The company unveiled
Pirelli-brand regional-application truck tire series and plans launched two
more complementary Tier 2 brands. The newly launched R89 line debuts in steer-
and drive-axle applications after thorough testing across the U.S. and Canada.
Furthermore, the line introduced eight steer-axel sizes, three closed-should
drive-axel sizes, and six open-shoulder drive-axel sizes and more sizes are
expected to be in production.
The advanced tires are
meticulously designed to deliver even wear and extended tread life. The
innovative tread compound that is used in the tires is expected to sustain
high-scrub conditions that often occur in North America. Moreover, the tire
uses Pirelli’s Spiral Advanced Technology for Truck (SATT) along with Hexa Bead
Wire for improved retreadability. The company has used novel tread patterns and
profiles that are designed to aid prevent impact damage. This enables uniform distribution
of torque and load for the drive.

Goodyear unveils advanced tire
monitoring tech
The well-known and prominent
market players in the tire industry, Goodyear recently announced the launch of advanced
tire monitoring technology for the trailer fleet in the North America region.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) Plus is a part of the company’s tire management program and is
developed to aid fleets to save both money and time by monitoring and alerting regarding
tire conditions.
The system has on-vehicle sensors
that monitor tire condition and enable the fleet to detect various issues such
as air leaks, abnormal temperature, and low pressure–which are major reasons
for accidents–in real-time.
As per the company, the system
detects a potential threat and Goodyear Fleet HQ can help in routing the driver
to the nearest service location or dispatch immediate assistance. After
witnessing the success of TPMS Plus with Norfolk Southern's intermodal
operations, the company has deployed the solution at the Norfolk Southern
Fairburn, Ga., facility.
The emphasis on low noise and
integrated smart sensors is disrupting the industry. Moreover, customers now
demand reliability and tires that help save fuel and thus, advanced tires are
on its way to become a norm. Keeping this in mind, the rise in demand for
autonomous vehicles is bound to increase the requirement of the advanced tire
and the rapid launches of novel tires nothing but absolute bliss.
