TIRE UNIFORMITY IMPROVEMENT THROUGH IDENTIFICATION OF PROCESS HARMONICS FROM STATIC BALANCE MEASUREMENTS

摘要

Systems and methods for improving tire uniformity using estimates of process harmonic magnitude(s) from static balance measurements for a set of tires are provided. In particular, a sequence of observed magnitudes of static balance can be obtained for a set of tires. The sequence of observed magnitudes can be analyzed in conjunction with a baseline magnitude pattern associated with the process harmonic to derive a magnitude of the process harmonic. The magnitude of the process harmonic can be used to improve the uniformity of tires.
