Mining & Metallurgy • MN-07
Tire Analytics
Extend the life of one of the largest consumables on site.
Scope
What the engagement covers.
Haul truck tyres are expensive, supply-constrained and sensitive to pressure, temperature, payload and road condition. Analytics turn those variables into managed tyre life.
Included capabilities
- Continuous pressure and temperature monitoring per tyre position
- Payload, speed and haul road condition correlation to wear
- Predictive replacement scheduling and rotation planning
- Failure root cause analysis by position, route and operator
- Inventory planning aligned to predicted replacement timing
Outputs and deliverables
- Tyre monitoring deployment across the fleet
- Wear correlation and failure mode analysis
- Predictive replacement schedule
- Cost per hour tracking against baseline
Workflow
How it is delivered, step by step.
Each step has an owner, an entry condition and an artefact that has to exist before the next step begins.
01FitSensors per wheel position with fleet-wide identification.
02BaselineCurrent tyre life, failure modes and cost per hour.
03CorrelateWear against payload, speed, road condition and pressure history.
04SchedulePredictive rotation and replacement planning.
05ReduceRoad maintenance and operating changes targeting wear drivers.
Use cases
Where this is typically applied.
Sites facing tyre supply constraints
Operations with poor haul road condition and rapid wear
Delivery model
The operating pattern for Mining & Metallurgy.
The same delivery discipline applies across every capability in this line, so combined engagements stay coherent.
Survey
Fleet, fuel flow, network coverage, loss points and current dispatch practice.
Instrument
On-board units, sensors, tags, LiDAR and camera installation.
Calibrate
Baseline consumption, cycle times, volumes and alert thresholds.
Operate
Dispatch centre, driver feedback loops, investigation and reporting routines.
Optimize
Continuous tuning against production, cost and safety targets.
Integration
- Fleet management, weighbridge and laboratory systems for reconciliation.
- ERP and fuel procurement for cost and inventory alignment.
- Mine planning and survey data for haul route and grade context.
- Access control and HR systems for shift, competency and permit checks.
Engagement approach
Fuel, cycle time and safety losses are quantified before deployment, and the same measures are the acceptance criteria after go-live, so value is settled on evidence rather than opinion.
