PCL Gets Even Smarter About Safety With New Bluetooth Enabled ACCURA QUBE and App

Since its initial launch, the robust and reliable ACCURA QUBE has been the market’s choice for fast and accurate inflation where space is limited.

A firm favourite in workshops, tyre shops, and garages worldwide, it gained further popularity when upgraded to the ACCURA QUBE Series II, incorporating digital technology for Air and Nitrogen inflation.

This compact unit packs an even more powerful punch regarding safety benefits, as a new Bluetooth-enabled model with the dedicated Workshop Connect App has been released.

Designed to keep the user out of harm’s way, the Bluetooth QUBE enables a 15-metre operating range and precise tracking of inflation data, making it ideal for:

  • Vehicle maintenance in workshops and tyre-changing shops
  • Maintaining fleet workshop data and safety records
  • Keeping a safe distance during HGV roadside maintenance

The Workshop Connect App features a user-friendly design to ensure easy navigation and quick input of vehicle information. Meanwhile, Bluetooth connectivity enables the operator to monitor inflation from a safe distance while remaining confident that the job is being done accurately and safely.

Designed Exclusively for the End User

The Workshop Connect App has been designed around the end user, guiding them step by step through the process—from entering the type of vehicle and axle configuration to checking starting pressure and inflating to optimum pressure. It incorporates distance warnings and an emergency stop button. When inflation is complete, the QUBE sounds an alarm and sends a signal to alert the user.

Each inflation is recorded as a PDF and CSV file so a database of the inflation data can be saved and used in the future. This reporting mechanism enables information to be printed or filed on a computer. It can be included in a premium service presentation to the customer to confirm tyre pressure and condition.

Managing Director Highlights PCL’s Customer-Focused, Safety-Driven Bluetooth QUBE Launch

Managing Director Lee Wright said, “PCL dedicates itself to the design and manufacture of customer-centric products with safety of paramount importance, and the Bluetooth-enabled QUBE is a major step forward in response to demand for those looking for a smart and reportable “belt and braces” solution.

“We have made significant investment into the development and assembly of this advanced unit and the Workshop Connect App here in Sheffield, working with partners in the local area. The unit was showcased recently at the Automechanika Frankfurt, where it received excellent feedback. Following rigorous testing, we are proud to announce the official launch of the Bluetooth QUBE as the first reportable device of its kind in the UK; enabling a robust technician audit trail and logging of vital data to provide safety and peace of mind for operators and consumers alike.”

Users of the Bluetooth-enabled QUBE can download the free PCL Workshop Connect app and benefit from:

  • 100% standard inflation control from a 15-metre distance
  • PDF output with before and after tyre pressures
  • CSV output to build client data

  • Vehicle mileage log
  • Data input log
  • Easy to use/identify icons
  • Security enabled pairing
  • Flat/damaged tyre notification
  • Overinflation notification
  • Easy scroll pressure selector

The Workshop Connect App is now available on Google Play for Android and will soon be available on the App Store for iOS users.
