VIZUtire has been recognized by CESCO as one of the most important technologies in 2017 in the Mining Industrie

In the recent CESCO´s 2017 dinner, VIZUtire was introduced to the Chilean top executives of the minning industrie as a local R&D solution to improve the lifespan of the OTR tires.

70´s years after the creation of the OTR tire, the technique to find damages is still been the same. (hit the tire with a hammer)

Now, VIZUtire provides a tool to evolve from the uncertain to the exact.

 

The designer of the new OTR tire model XDR250 visits Minera Spence to meet VIZUtire technology.

Under the launch of the new OTR tire model XDR250, the designer and french engineer Mr. Benoit Michelin, visits the facilities of Minera Spence to be internalized of the benefits of the VIZUtire technology.

VIZUtire is part of the "Technologic Transfer Office" of the North Catholic University - CHILE

OTL NCU is responsible for promoting, supporting, manage, distribute, link and transfer innovation based on science that is been generated by university researchers in their faculties, centers and institutes, seeking with the above support compliance the third mission of the institution.

UCN consolidated transfer and licensing office

In order to strengthen the University in the field of innovation, transfer and business creation science-based, the Office of Transfer and Licensing (OTL) is consolidated for the benefit of students and academics in the creation and development of research projects.

CORFO - Antofagasta, awarded funding line 4 for packaging technology VIZUtire

Subcommittee on Business Innovation of CORFO Antofagasta, at its meeting No. 270, approving implementation of the project "VIZUTIRE, TECHNOLOGICAL ANALYSIS SYSTEM FOR MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION ULTRASONIC DAMAGE PREDICTIVE OTR"

Exponor 2015 present technical tool that lengthens lifespan of tires of mining.

Local research initiative was developed in partnership with scientific support from the Catholic University of the North. A unique technology in the world, generated in the region of Antofagasta and patented in Chile an in five other countries - is a new innovation in the global tire industry, managing to maximize performance and availability of these through preventive maintenance.
