Top tyre makers jointly launch Agro Tyre Pressure app

A number of leading tyre manufacturers have teamed up to launch the Agro Tyre Pressure app, to provide customers with easier access to agricultural tyre pressure indications.

Information from Bridgestone, Continental, Apollo Tyres, Nokian Tyres and Trelleborg Wheel Systems is now available in a single app, which has been developed by Swiss firm Anura Associates.

This application combines the databases of each manufacturer like pressure, load and speed tables.

The app is now available in English, French, German and Polish for iOS and Android.

In agriculture, the variety of vehicles, applications and implements require regular and appropriate adaptation of tyre pressures to ensure their service life and other key performances like traction, fuel savings and soil protection.

Usually, after identifying the axle loads and speed of use, the farmer should refer to the manufacturer’s documentation to define the right pressure.

If the farmer has multiple brands of tyres on the fleet of agricultural vehicles, this gets even more complicated.

The new smartphone application provides easy and quick access to correct tyre pressure data. By selecting load, speed, size and the tyre brand, this new app supports farmers and dealers in their daily work.
