Tires

The off-the-road (OTR) tire market is dominated by Michelin and

Bridgestone which support the mining operations at the best use

of tires

As general rules, Michelin/Bridgestone suggest for mining truckAs general rules, Michelin/Bridgestone suggest for mining truck

to use 1/3 of the life of tire in front positions and 2/3 in rear

positions

Job to be done

Clayton Christensen (Disruptive Innovation) creates this concept

Job to be done (JTBD) in not a product / service specific, but

rather: the greater purpose by which people buy products,

service and solutions

All job to be done (JTBD) must respond as follows:

1.- ¿What is the need?

2.- ¿Why does the need exist?

3.- ¿What is the context of this need?

Job to be done

1.- ¿What is the need?

Spend less tires with the minimum investment

2.- ¿Why does the need exist?

Due to the decrease in the sale price of its products, companyDue to the decrease in the sale price of its products, company

presents a financial contingengy situation

3.- ¿What is the context of this need?

In general, efforts are focused on tire performance loses the

focus it should be minimize tire spending

Change in objetive function

Maximize performance Minimize consumption

Simulation is created that relates the frequency of rotation and

the consumption of new tires. Obtained as resultsthe consumption of new tires. Obtained as results

Conclusions

� For the mining work under study the increase in rotation

frequency 2.000 to 2.600 hours allowed a 33% decrease in the

tire costs per hours (Simulations)

� To support this strategy requires a logistics dispatch and repair� To support this strategy requires a logistics dispatch and repair

of reduced time tires

� The times of quotation, approval purchase orders should be

equally reduced

Conclusions

� A fast tire repair system and a high percentage of scrap tires

due to wear are fundamental requirements for the

implementation of this strategy

� In the same way the efforts to improve the uses of the tires

must be given bymust be given by

� Operator awareness

� Pit conditions

� Tire maintenance

� Tire monitoring & management

� Top management support
