The condition of the rims or wheels of a heavy-duty (HD) truck in the mining industry plays a very crucial role. This is because the core of the production process for coal, gold, nickel, or other minerals is the transportation from the pit to the plant. If a heavy truck experiences rim damage, production capacity can decrease by hundreds of tons per day.
