Presentation

Tire and wheel assembly issues from OEM view and technical solutions

Vehicle manufacturers use automatic tire and wheel assembly lines for tire mounting. With the help of these systems, it is possible to produce assembled wheels of high quality in a short time and at a low cost. The specifications for these systems are precisely defined by the vehicle manufacturers, but this automatic process also has its challenges that need to be recognized and solved. This presentation also points out phenomena that cannot be eliminated with the classical methods of analysis.
