The mining industry is a sector that involves the exploration, extraction, and processing of minerals and other natural resources from the earth’s crust. A mining company operates a large fleet of heavy equipment and manages a vast number of tires, which makes it difficult to keep track of tire performance and maintenance schedules. This can lead to downtime, safety incidents, and increased costs.

Introduction
Challenges
Mining companies face many challenges with tire management. Rugged terrain and heavy loads common in mining lead to uneven wear on tires. It affected overall tire performance and lifespan. Overloaded trucks or equipment put extra strain on tires and cause premature wear or failure.
There was lack of real-time visibility into tire conditions, inefficient maintenance scheduling, a lack of data analysis, and increased safety risks.
To overcome these challenges, a mining company decides to implement tire management software.
Challenges
Solution
The implementation of tire management software helped address these challenges.
- By implementing our tire management software, mining companies achieved real-time visibility into tire conditions.
- With the inspection module the company performed regular tire inspections and catched potential issues before they led to downtime or safety incidents.
- The software automated data entry, reducing the risk of errors and improving the accuracy of tire performance data.
- The software included a distance covered brand-wise chart and a brand-wise projected mileage chart to provide a comprehensive overview of tire performance.
- The software collected and analyzed vast amount of tire-related data, allowing mining companies to identify trends, track performance metrics, and make data-driven decisions to optimize their operations.
Results
Cost savings – Tire management software allowed mining companies to optimize tire usage and maintenance, reducing the need for premature tire replacement and lowering maintenance costs.
Data-driven decision-making – The software’s analytics capabilities allowed for the identification of patterns and trends, providing insights into tire performance and maintenance needs, and enabling more proactive and informed decision-making.
Improved tire lifespan – By tracking tire performance and maintenance history, mining company extends the lifespan of their tires, ensuring they get the most out of their investment.
