tAIre Section Scanner
An AI-powered section digitization tool that converts tyre cut-section images into structured engineering geometry and design parameters.
Accelerate tyre benchmarking and reverse-engineering activities by transforming physical section data into reusable digital inputs for design, comparison and optimization.
Problem Solved
Physical sections are hard to bring back into engineering workflows
Benchmarking and reverse-engineering activities rely on physical tyre cut-sections, which are difficult to measure, compare and reuse as structured inputs for engineering workflows without extensive manual digitization work.
Platform Position
Physical Section to Digital Geometry
tAIre Section Scanner sits alongside Tyre Geometry in the Moonar platform flow, with an inbound path from Manufacturing and Validation: it converts a physical, manufactured tyre section back into structured digital geometry for reuse in design and optimization workflows.

Enterprise Fit
Configurability, integration and deployment
Configurability
Calibrated to your section formats
Calibration references and optional manually identified reference points allow the system to be adapted to different image sources, section formats and tyre size conventions.
Integration
Feeds directly into tAIre Designer Suite
Extracted geometry and design parameters are exported as input parameters for tAIre Designer Suite, or as DXF and other engineering file formats where supported, for use in existing CAD and PLM workflows.
Deployment
Cloud or on-premise
Runs in a customer-managed cloud environment or on-premise infrastructure, with role-based access and security requirements adapted to internal IT policy.
