The BM15 Tire Tread Handheld 3D scanner is a compact and lightweight device. It is quick and easy to use and eliminates the errors associated with manual depth gauges. The scanner is positioned on one edge of a tire and operated by sliding it across the tread face.
Accurate tread depth readings for tires of all vehicle types, such as passenger cars, LCVs, HGV, busses and trailers.
Can reveal badly worn or unevenly worn tires symptomatic of problems such as wheel misalignment or worn suspension.
Colour coded 3D scans enable tire replacement at the optimum time to maximise tire safety.
Advice on possible in-correct wheel adjustment.
Suitable for wet or dirty tires and is ideal for all tire inspection applications in workshops, service centres, inspection lanes, commercial vehicle yards and at the roadside.
Easy to use with BM FlexCheck software:
Advanced data collection, storing and presentation of test results.
Smartphone/tablet solution that allows the operator to control and monitor the test results directly on a handheld unit.
The patented tire measurement technology creates a detailed 3D scan of each tire, constructed from 320,000 measurement points, with an accuracy of < 0.2mm or 0.008”. By scanning the full width of the tire and 50mm around the tire, the scanner far surpasses the accuracy and reliability of traditional dip gauges and non-contact ‘laser pointer’ measurement devices.
Advanced software algorithms produce detailed colour coded 3-dimensional tire tread images which show the condition of the tire tread with absolute clarity. When presented to a vehicle owner, BM15 scans immediately convey tire condition and remove any perceived barriers to tire replacement should tread depth be insufficient or illegal.
