SMARTYRE – From tyre manufacturer to mobility provider

SMARTYRE allows tyre manufacturer to spend more time on: design, validation and manufacturing best in class tyres and transform themselves into mobility providers. With this solution, tyre manufacturers can connect between material science, tyre engineering and manufacturing in a closed loop that removes enterprise friction and facilitates innovation.

SMARTYRE enables tyre manufacturers to accurately focus on the integrated design and simulation environment, manufacturing operations and materials management with the help of 3DEXPERIENCE platform. With SMARTYRE, tyre manufacturers can command a global presence – from design to industrialization, manufacturing execution to service and operations everywhere.

SMARTYRE Benefits:

• Satisfy customer demand
  There are more and more needs for mobility as the population is increasing and, therefore, more tyres. Tire manufacturers need to fulfil this increasing demand.
• Accelerate innovation
  The Mobility changes (autonomous and/or electric vehicles) are naturally leading to more innovation. New technologies like electric vehicles are bringing new requirements for new type of tires – narrower, larger diameter, etc.New technology for autonomous vehicles, with the addition of sensors, new full ecosystem, wheel, corner module, and fleet management systems, are also leading tire manufacturers to provide new services (Changes to new business model – from product to service).The re-enforcement of the competition is affecting all players and increases the need to innovate if they want to stay ahead.
• Reduce raw materials and production cost
  Improve procurement efficiencies and effective raw material consumption while leveraging multiple local production locations and supply chains.
• Sustainability
  Contributing to the development of a circular economy by advocating renewable and recycled solutions and better use of resources.
