Hubometer

Hubometers are essential for semi-trailers, serving as the primary method to track the accumulated distance traveled throughout the vehicle's lifespan.

They find application in buses, trucks, or trailers, particularly those whose tires are provided to the vehicle operator through an independent company under a "price per thousand kilometers" contract.

At the Veeder Manufacturing Company in Hartford, Connecticut production of cyclometers, hubodometers, and other scientific tools was underway for contracts with the United States government.

He would later adapt the invention to measure distance traveled for automobiles, hubodometers,[5] as well as hand-turned cyclometers for use by the US Weather Bureau.

Utilizing his industrial riches, Veeder constructed an intricate stone mansion located on Elizabeth Street in Hartford.
