VAIA DOT

VAIA DOT Code Reading System

VAIA DOT is a robust propriety system for reliably reading DOT codes and dates on automobile tires. Features of the VAIA DOT system include:

  • 99%+ accuracy read rate
  • 20-22 tires per minute (if the tires are traveling on a conveyor) / 100+ feet per minute
  • Can read a wide variety of font and code styles
  • Random tire orientation and size

Tire manufacturer’s and 3PL’s (third party logistics providers) want to better identify and track tires through their facilities to:

  • Better respond to increasing regulatory requirements, and flag tires on quality hold
  • Reduce labor associated with handling, ensuring equipment accuracy, and matching customer requirements
  • Capture a permanent digital record of the tires shipped and better assess the validity of customer claims
  • Enhance facility inventory and FIFO/aged inventory management

VAIA provides on-going service and support programs tailored to customer needs. This includes service level agreements with defined coverage/response times, and rapid response remote troubleshooting and correction (all systems are remote-connect capable). We also have on-site technicians when required.
