Tire Identification System
The DOT Code Identification System is a sensor and software package used to scan cured tire sidewalls, digitize the surface, and produce a point-cloud file suitable for processing in your preferred 3D vision toolset.
The software provide tools for filtering and flattening the image, and for conversion of the data to a bitmap format compatible with most 3D vision libraries.
The CrossCheck Sensor must be packaged with a motion control system to set it to the proper standoff distance from the tire sidewall, and to the proper radial position near the bead. Either the tire or the sensor must be rotated one revolution.

The Tire Identification System is used in tire factories to identify tires after curing for sorting into the final finish department, thus eliminating the need for human tire sorting.
The Tire ID system can also be used in auto assembly factories to match the DOT Code, including date code, to the Vehicle ID Number for purposes of recall management. The tire ID system is used in JIT Tire/Wheel Assembly facilities to verify that the correct tire is matched to the wheel for sequence management.
