Alicanto: structural
intelligence for OTR tires

The technology VIZUtire brought to market redefines how mining operations can detect and anticipate structural damage in OTR tires.

Non-destructive technology applied to critical tires
Ultrasound technology that maps damage dimensions not visible from the outside.
Predictive mathematical model with 82.5% effectiveness
VIZUtire has developed a model that identifies which tire and which CAEX has structural damage, anticipating the development of damage that could lead to uncontrolled energy release and/or mechanical or thermal separation damage.
Zero uncontrolled energy release in OTR tires
The main goal: balancing people's safety with operational continuity.
