"Continental has unveiled its next-generation aramid reinforcement technology for long-haul autonomous truck tires at the IAA Transportation 2025 show. The breakthrough features:
• Machine-learning designed cord architecture: AI algorithms optimized the 3D weaving pattern of para-aramid fibers, achieving:
22% higher cut resistance (ISO 15270 standard)
15% reduced heat buildup at sustained 100km/h speeds
Predictive wear modeling accuracy of ±3% (vs. current ±8%)
• Integrated strain sensors: Embedded fiber Bragg grating sensors continuously monitor:
Cord tension variations (±0.5N precision)
Temperature gradients across tire layers
Real-time damage detection through acoustic emission analysis
The technology is being piloted with TuSimple's L4 autonomous trucks on the Dallas-Houston corridor, demonstrating 300,000km lifespan under 50-ton GCW conditions. Continental estimates 2027 production readiness."
