Step 1 - Make a scan with the Tire Tread Demo App
| Info |
|---|
IMPORTANT: Before you start scanning it is important that you know how to scan with the Anyline Tire Tread Demo App. To do this, please watch this tutorial: https://vimeo.com/774805672 Once you have mastered it, it‘s time to compare. |
Select your Scan Area:
Start by defining a scan area of approx 20 cm on your tire (see below image as an example).
Perform the scan:
Scan from one tire shoulder to the other. Make sure to keep the right distance and don‘t scan for longer than 5-7 seconds.
Step 2 - Make sure that the scan was done correctly
After the scan, click the “Details” button on the result view and check the image on the PDF report for the following:
The image represents the tread profile of the tire (you can recognise the thread pattern)
The image clearly shows a good density of measurement points
The image is not skewed, distorted or shifted
Both edges of the tire are detected (there are regional results available)
If any of the above is either missing or not the case, please repeat the scan and check again.

Step 3 - Make manual measurements
Make 3 manual measurements for each main groove, in the area where the scan happened, and write down the results.
The number of grooves can vary, so we strongly recommend using the following device to make the manual measurements: Digital Tyre Tread Depth Gauge with Stainless Steel Body (39591).

In our example we made 3 measurements for each of the 4 grooves.

Step 4 - Compare the global results
Now we are ready to compare our results. In order to do so, calculate the average of all results from the manual measurements for each groove.
This is the value you should compare with the global result of the scan.
Region | Relevant Grooves | Manual Measurement | Scan Result | Diff. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
GLOBAL | All (Groove 1 - 4) | AVG(2.70, 2.85, 2.41, 2.60) = 2.64 mm | 2.70 mm | 0.06 mm |
In our example we get a global average value of 2.64 mm compared to a scan result of 2.70 mm.
Step 5 - Compare the regional results (optional)
You can also compare the regional results. Check the PDF report to see how the grooves of the tire were divided (by the vertical lines).
If multiple grooves are in one region, you need to calculate the average value of those manual measurements.

Based on the image in the report, we have to …

Using numbers from our Example:
Region | Relevant Grooves | Manual Measurement | Scan Result | Diff. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
LEFT | Groove 1, Groove 2 | AVG(2.70, 2.85) = 2.78 mm | 2.80 mm | 0.02 mm |
MID | Groove 2, Groove 3 | AVG(2.85, 2.41) = 2.63 mm | 2.70 mm | 0.07 mm |
RIGHT | Groove 4 | 2.60 mm | 2.40 mm | 0.20 mm |
