Vredestein App

This application calculates tyre pressure based on the tyre load in order to obtain optimal efficiency and maximise your service life.

Optimal Efficiency
Air/Tyre pressure is all that is carrying the load. The right air pressure enables you to get the most power to the ground. The right pressure is calculated by determining exactly how much air you need in order to carry the load at your operating speed. This ensures that you are reducing the impact of taking heavy machinery across the soil and preserving the soil structure as much as possible without compromising the integrity of your tyre. This optimal pressure also ensures that you are maximising the tractive performance that you can deliver to the ground reducing the level of wheel slip meaning that you're using less fuel, and taking less time in the field.

Maximise Service Life
The proper inflation pressure on the road can greatly increase the life of your tyre. The flex in the sidewall is reduced sufficiently so the tyre does not overheat. When a tyre overheats the tyre life is reduced and the chances of an irregular wear pattern is greatly increased. Extended periods of time on the road may mean that you want to even further increase your tyre pressure right up to the full transport pressure to avoid this overheating. Running the proper inflation pressure on the road improves the stability of the tractor, reducing the 'drag' which means that you will use less fuel in this application.
