Any farmer knows that adjusting your tractor’s tire pressure is often necessary on the farm, as factors like vehicle type, load, and speed all impact the optimal pressure. The Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) has your back. The CTIS allows you to control tire pressure from the comfort of your seat.  

Michelin is a leading mobility company committed to improving customer mobility and sustainability by designing and delivering innovative tires, services, solutions, and much more. Michelin is also the No. 1 source of innovation in the global tire industry and the leading global brand power score among the top 5 tire companies. So, you can rest assured that they know how to create products that understand their customers and have their best interest at heart. And that is exactly what the CTIS brings to the table. 

The Central Tire Inflation System uses sensors, valves, and a control unit to assess the ideal tire pressure for your terrain, enhancing driving responsiveness. It then adjusts the tire pressure by activating the valves to inflate or deflate the tires as needed.  

The CTIS is also compatible for all your agricultural machinery e.g., Manure spearers, fertilizer tankers, planters etc. As well as the CTIS will fit any vehicle, any tire brand, and on any configuration. The interface within the cabin that the CTIS operates on is very user friendly. It allows you to quickly inflate or deflate tires, even while the vehicle is moving, and adjust settings for different surfaces (road, field), load levels (full to empty), and axles, as well as set a range of high and low pressures for each axle.
