It also incorporates a sensor to warn against brake and hub overheating, together with a full tyre pressure management system (TPMS) to give drivers and fleet managers added peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p>Wheely-Safe overcame tough competition from five other finalists to win the title, which recognised its technology for having done the most to improve fleet safety. The success follows just four months after winning the Transport Technology of the Year category at the National Technology Awards 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Gary Broadfield, Group Managing Director of Wheely-Safe and the inventor behind the technology, said: \u201cThe consequence of wheel loss can be devastating, which is why we set out to solve this problem once and for all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cExisting solutions on the market were all mechanical devices designed to try and keep the wheels on, but they simply didn\u2019t cover every potential pitfall. We knew we needed to come at the problem from a different angle, and we\u2019re absolutely thrilled to win this major recognition from Brake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Michelin Wheel Safe is an intuitive, low cost and extremely effective system which sees a sensor straddle two wheel nuts thanks to a specially designed bracket \u2013 with a pair fitted to each wheel. If a nut starts to loosen by just 1mm, a signal is instantly transmitted to a display unit in the cab, alerting the driver to pull over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global Michelin licensee Wheely-Safe has secured a second national award for its pioneering Michelin Wheel Safe technology after winning the Fleet Safety Product (in-vehicle) category at the Brake Fleet Safety Awards<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":104,"featured_media":24638,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24637","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-michelin","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
