YXLON MTIS Leading X-ray System for Radial Tire Inspection
YXLON MTIS X-ray inspection system for radial passenger car and truck tires satisfies the need for the highest quality imaging and inspection accuracy, and gathers valuable statistical process control data.
Our MTIS industrial X-ray Inspection system is the perfect choice for 24/7 inline quality assessment of radial tires during final finishing, with a reliable uptime of more than 95%.
The system identifies defects and irregularities such as:
– Inaccurate positioning of structural steel components
– Defects of the components i.e. loose wires or dog ears
– Presence of foreign objects
The YXLON UScan 3 detector delivers high image quality with high contrast as required by ASTM F1035 with 16-bit dynamic resolution. The 4-spindle manipulator offers accuracy and easy reproducibility of the inspection results. This is the basis for gathering good statistical data. With the vertical scan positioning on the 4-spindle manipulator, inspection is achieved with a minimum of deformation, including for warm tires.
The automatic defect recognition software allows for objective and efficient quality assessment against specified limits and extracts various data for statistical process control for every tire, e.g. internal construction details that help make production quality measurable – an important role in continuous production improvement.
Our worldwide service network offers services tailored to your individual needs. We work to continuously improve the MTIS system to satisfy the latest industry requirements, helping you achieve a maximum reliability and exceptional uptime.

TireView
TireView is our software dedicated for viewing tire X-ray images. It supports the display of high resolution 360° tire images and offers a wide variety of features for adjusting the image and investigating identified anomalies. It supports a live view mode with eye-friendly smooth scrolling to allow identifying minimal defects at a minimum viewer strain. TireView works with TireAXIS and highlights anomalies identified by the automatic defect recognition software.
TireAXIS
For fully automatic tire inspection, TireAXIS™ provides consistently high process quality to detect flaws in the cord material and plies, air inclusions or foreign objects, without any operator intervention. The software supports the operator or performs the final evaluation of the X-ray image independently. Configurable inspection programs offer reproducible decisions for a controlled testing process.
