A device for measuring the tread depth of a tire includes measuring modules situated transversely with respect to the running direction of the tire and connected to a shared evaluation device. Each measuring module includes (i) an illumination device which is configured and situated in such a way that during operation it projects at least one light line onto the tread to be measured, and (ii) at least one image recording device recording at least one image of at least one area of the tread to be measured. The at least one illumination device and the at least one image recording device are configured and situated in such a way that the illumination direction of the illumination device and the image recording direction of the image recording device are oriented neither in parallel to one another nor orthogonally with respect to the tread.

Device and method for measuring the tread depth of a tire

A device for checking the mounting of tires on a vehicle includes at least one image recording device that is configured for recording images of at least two tires mounted on the vehicle, the images each capturing at least one area of a tire, and at least one data processing device that is adapted for analyzing the recorded images to determine whether the tires have been correctly mounted on the vehicle.

Method and device for checking the tire mounting on a vehicle

A method for the automatic optical inspection of a tread profile of at least one wheel of a vehicle is provided, the method encompassing the following steps: Irradiating at least one section of the tread profile using radiation from at least one radiation device; detecting the radiation reflected by the tread profile using at least one radiation detection device; processing the reflected radiation using a data processing device; and outputting an analysis result regarding a two-dimensional and/or three-dimensional structure of the tread profile, i.e., for suitability for winter weather road conditions.
