We connect tire manufacturing processes, factory data and digital technology to help manufacturers plan, control and improve production.

Why choose us?

As a full-service technology house, we offer you the entire solutions for designing, building and running a smart and sustainable tire plant with maximized productivity and best-in-class products. We work hands-on with you throughout the entire process.

With us, you get access to the latest technology, the smartest innovations and the most advanced automation tools.

We help you do more with less. A 10% decrease in raw material costs together with a 20% better operating efficiency means that your manufacturing cost per unit will be remarkably lower.

Assuming total responsibility for the production design, ramp-up, and material handling, we make sure there are no cost overruns, delays or quality deficits. We supervise on site and control that every detail in the production aligns with your goals.

Even minor quality problems can erode profit. We help to fuel your operational excellence with process optimization. Stabilizing the processes and reducing bottlenecks leads to quality improvements and better production efficiency.

Our finetuned processes and advanced technology tools enable a smooth ramp up. The reduced time-to-market generates faster and greater ROI.

Modularity allows a flexible installation of individual production modules. This allows you to stretch your investment out over a longer time period.

Let us unfold your factory’s true potential. A complete plant rebuild is seldom required, but sometimes a simple technology upgrade or an improvement in a single process phase gives a major boost in productivity.

A streamlined manufacturing process means fewer delays and significant cost savings while improving quality and overall productivity.

Frequently asked questions about tire plant technology

What is tire plant technology?

Tire plant technology includes the digital systems, simulation tools, automation principles and production information used to plan, control and improve tire manufacturing operations.

What is a tire manufacturing execution system?

A tire manufacturing execution system connects production information across factory operations. It can support production control, product traceability, quality management and operational visibility between planning systems and factory equipment.

What is tire factory simulation?

Tire factory simulation is a virtual representation of a tire production system. It is used to evaluate production flows, equipment utilization, capacity, buffers and possible bottlenecks before physical changes are implemented.

Can factory simulation be used for an existing tire plant?

Yes. An existing factory or an individual production area can be modeled to evaluate constraints, compare improvement alternatives and support expansion or modernization decisions.

Can these technologies support a new tire factory project?

Yes. Factory simulation can support capacity planning, layout evaluation and material-flow development. MES and production-data requirements can also be defined during factory planning.

How does Black Donuts protect manufacturing data?

Black Donuts works under agreed confidentiality requirements and can establish an NDA before detailed factory, production or system information is shared.
