Why Choose the RTA100 SMT

Key Features

🚗
Zero-Disruption Drive-Over

No ramps, no lifts, no delays. Vehicles drive over the RTA100 SMT at low speed during normal service entry — a complete tread scan is completed before the vehicle even stops.

🎯
±0.2mm Laser Precision

Industrial-grade laser sensors deliver ±0.2mm tread depth accuracy — precise enough to clearly identify tires approaching legal safety limits and support an objective service recommendation.

8-Second Full Scan

All four tires scanned simultaneously in approximately 8 seconds. Results are available at the service counter before the hood is opened.

📊
Color-Coded Reports

Scan results display as a clear, color-coded tire map that customers immediately understand — green, amber, or red per zone. A powerful upsell tool that builds trust.

🏗️
Retrofit-Friendly Surface Mount

The SMT configuration mounts directly on the floor — no floor cutting or pit construction required. Ideal for retrofitting into existing shops with minimal disruption.

🌍
Global Deployment

Universal power input and a worldwide partner network make the RTA100 SMT available and supported in Canada, USA, Brazil, Costa Rica, Poland, and China.

Frequently Asked Questions

RTA100 SMT — FAQ

SMT stands for Surface-Mount. The RTA100 SMT is installed on or just above the shop floor surface, allowing vehicles to drive over it without any ramp, pit, or floor modification required.
Precision laser sensors scan all four tires simultaneously as the vehicle drives over the unit at low speed. A complete tread depth report and traction assessment is generated in approximately 8 seconds.
The RTA100 SMT achieves ±0.2mm tread depth measurement accuracy using industrial-grade laser sensors — precise enough to reliably identify tires approaching legal minimum tread depth limits.
The RTA100 SMT scans passenger cars, light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. It is suitable for dealerships, tire shops, fleet operations, vehicle inspection lanes, and quick-lube facilities.
No. The SMT version is designed for surface mounting — it sits on the floor without any pit or recess. This makes it ideal for retrofitting into existing shops without construction work.
The SMT (Surface-Mount) sits above floor level — easier to retrofit. The FMT (Flush-Mount) is recessed into the floor for a seamless, flush installation preferred in new construction or during shop renovation. Both deliver identical scan accuracy and speed.
Results display as a color-coded tire map showing green (good), amber (monitor), and red (replace) zones per tire. Reports can be printed or shared digitally with the customer, making tire condition easy to understand and act on.
