Precision weighing for smarter material handling
Loadrite offers a range of loader scales and onboard weighing systems designed for wheel loaders, from entry level through advanced functionality options. Whether you require basic weighing information for a compact loader or greater accuracy and data capture capabilities for production-sized loaders, the company has solutions. Among the options are the L5000 SmartScale for bulk material handling and the L3180 SmartScale that adjusts for rough terrain, technique and movement.
Integrator designed for use with scales, feeders on belts
The WeighPoint Series 7200 integrator from Thayer Scale is a dual-processor, touchscreen-enabled solution designed for continuous operation in harsh environments. The company says the field-mountable or panel-mountable standalone unit with HMI provides an easy-to-use interface to the company’s library of algorithms and functions. WeighPoint 7200 is designed for use with Thayer Scale’s range of RF belt scales and weigh belt feeders.
In-motion tech keeps truck on the move
According to Rice Lake Weighing Systems, its Survivor OTR-IMS in-motion truck scale system cuts emissions by shortening truck idle time and eliminating lines of trucks waiting to be weighed. The company says the system can also reduce maintenance by limiting truck braking and improving site safety by allowing drivers to complete transactions from their cabs. The system consists of a 1280 Enterprise Series weight indicator (pictured) with legal-for-trade, in-motion software. Rice Lake combines it with the LaserLight3 remote display, a speed sensor and a Survivor OTR truck scale.
Several options for conveying systems
The WY15, WY25 and WY45 belt scales from Tecweigh feature single-, dual- and four-idler versions to meet or exceed accuracy requirements. Self-storing calibration weights make routine checks easy and safe, the company says. The scale systems are built for the harsh conditions commonly encountered in aggregates.
