    ProMat 2025: Zebra Tread Intel Automates Tire Inspections

    Zebra Tread Intel automates tire tread depth measurements, reducing labor costs and errors.

    Designed to work with Zebra's TC78 and TC58e mobile computers as a snap-on accessory, Tread Intel uses Zebra OCR Wedge optical recognition software to capture essential data, enhance passenger safety, and improve efficiency in vehicle fleet operations.

    Capture accurate tire tread depth anywhere with a simple swipe across the tire, quickly and easily identifying when vehicle tires need to be replaced, are defective, or have been recalled. And tire manufacturers can easily perform quality checks and verify tread depth on defective tires returned for insurance claims.

    The dual laser image sensor and Zebra's advanced proprietary algorithms measure tire tread depth within 1/32 of an inch (0.79 mm) in less than 5 seconds, enabling near instant assessment of tire wear and tear. It's designed to accurately measure tire depth on dry, wet, or even dirty tires. 

    Just install Zebra's OCR software solutions on the TC58e or TC78 to automate the capture of information required to complete tire sales or vehicle maintenance inspections. With the press of a button, Zebra's OCR Wedge can capture Vehicle Identification Numbers (VIN), Tire Identification Numbers (TIN), license plates, and driver's licenses. And no-cost Free-form OCR software allows you to capture any additional text, such as an odometer reading.
