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.
