Transense is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Translogik Limited ("Translogik"), has received an order for its commercial vehicle tyre inspection tools, and a number of its 'TruckSense' Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) from Pirelli Brazil. Pirelli is the number one ranked truck tyre manufacturer by sales in Brazil; one of the largest truck markets in the world.

The tools will be used as part of Pirelli's new nationwide commercial tyre inspection system; Pirelli Tyre Check. 

Marcio Takimoto, Product Manager and Strategic Marketing of Truck Tyres operations in Latin America commented: "The Translogik Tread and Pressure Probe will be a real benefit to our organisation and will be used as part of a company-wide initiative to improve our service offering to our existing clients and enable us to gain new truck and bus fleet customers with our subsequently improved service. Further to extensive trials, the probe has proved to be a real time-saver, helping to collect and wirelessly record real-time tread and pressure readings more quickly and accurately."

Using the range of Translogik wireless tyre inspection tools will allow Pirelli to offer its customers accurate real-time data, adding considerable value to its services.  With the addition of Pirelli to our customer base, Translogik is now supplying products to the five largest tyre manufacturers globally."
