Hardware Precision & Software Intelligence
Servo-Hydraulic Drive & Load Cells
The robust servo-hydraulic system guarantees absolute control over testing speeds, ensuring strict adherence to international regulations. Combined with a wide range of selectable load cell capacities, the PL-2000X seamlessly handles everything from passenger car tires to heavy-duty commercial models without compromising data resolution.
TTAS: Tire Tread Analysis System
Developed exclusively by EKTRON TEK, the professional TTAS software automatically processes massive datasets. It calculates pressure values across the footprint area, offering Arithmetic, Weighted, and Median mean calculations. Results are vividly displayed as digital values alongside high-resolution color images of pressure distribution.
