In mining and heavy equipment construction projects, tyres are a major expense. Proper tyre registers can save many hundreds of thousands of dollars in purchase costs and lost production.

Tight integration with scheduled maintenance and work orders will improve tyre life through proper maintenance and integration of tyre preventative maintenance into routine work.

This module allows you to monitor wear patterns, track warranty and compare performance between different tyre types. Comparison of equipment with TMPH specification in the tyre register will give indications of overloading. For contractors, costs can be monitored between sites and hourly charges adjusted accordingly.

Tyres are branded and there are 2 main programs; the tyre register and tyre transactions. The register stores current details, much in the same way as the plant/ asset register. Transactions record repairs, rotations or exchanges.

This is mainly a stand alone module with options to work orders, scheduled maintenance and the accounting interface. Modules can be loaded at individual sites and information transferred and consolidated at a central source. Features include:

	Brands.
	Type with links to manufacturer's tyre specification.
	Status.
