Fully Portable & Cost Effective Axle Weighing System

This system accomplishes the best possible combination of portability and reliability, by using two lightweight, loadcell-based weighing platforms and the necessary weighing equipment inside a compact baggage. The system is pre-installed, pre-calibrated and ready to be used out-of-the-box.

This axle weighing system is strongly recommended by PROTEM for its lightweight and large platforms (700x500x33 cm, WxLxH). It is very easily transportable and ideal for spaces where access is limited. The platforms are specifically manufactured for harsh environments and are IP66 certified. They also have interlocking rubber mats from each side, in order to achieve the maximum accuracy and ease of use.

The system is recommended for inventory management, imports – exports, warehouse management, double-checking the weigh of heavy-duty vehicles, internal audits, etc. No foundation works or studies are required. Instead a flat, horizontal surface is necessary, upon which the weighing platforms will be placed. The system also includes interlocking leveling rubber pad on each side of the platforms to improve precision, especially in weighing vehicles with more than two axles.

WEIGHING PLATFORMS

The weighing platforms offer a very high accuracy of ±0,5-1,5% FS (of total load capacity), as long as they are placed on flat and clear surfaces (ex. Industrial floor).

  • Weigh pad size: 700mm Μ X 500mm Π X 33 mm Υ
  • Material: High-strengh aluminium alloy
  • Platform weight: 36 Kg (easily transportable by a single person)
  • Protection rate: IP66. Very resistant to harsh industrial working conditions
  • Weigh pads: 0,35m of interlocking leveling rubber pad on each side
  • Rated capacity: 15.000 Kg per platform

PORTABLE ELECTRONIC WEIGHING AND PRINTING EQUIPMENT

The entire weighing equipment is stored inside a robust, compact, heavy-duty suitcase, specifically designed for industrial environments. The equipment is pre-installed, pre-calibrated and ready to be used out-of-the-box. A rechargable 6V, 4,5 Ah battery and a 220V charger are stored inside this suitcase, as well as plugs for connecting with the weighing platrofms and the power supply.

Main technical characteristics:

  • 01Multifunction, LCD weight indicator.
  • 02Display of total, axle and individual weigh per platform, Battery status and charging notification (when battery is low)
  • 03Stores up to 30 vehicle dead weights
  • 04Values are updated in Real-time
  • 05Can be used for an unlimited number of vehicle axles
  • 06Option to set desired number of axles for the automatic printing of weighing note
  • 07Integrated printer for printing date / time / Nr. Of weighing note / axle weight / total weight
  • 08Great battery life expectancy for weighing all day long without having to charge it.

WEIGHING ACCURACY

The weighing accuracy of axle weighing cannot be compared to the weighing accuracy of a weighbridge. Nor is selling materials with an axle scale weighing note allowed. It is, however, an easy, fast and budget-friendly weighing solution for material receipt checks, such as aggregates, waste and recyclable materials of small value, where an error of 1-2% is acceptable.

In general, the principles that each and every client of ours much be aware of applied in the weighing accuracy achieved by using our recommended solution are the following:

A1) When the vehicle’s axle weight is ≤20% FS (FS=Full Scale Platform Weighing Capacity, in this case 40T) then the maximum vehicle weighing error’s value is from ± 0.3% FS/ Axle + ± 0.3% RΟ (RΟ=Vehicle Weight).

A2) When the vehicle’s axle weight is ≥20% FS (FS=Full Scale Platform Weighing Capacity, in this case 40T) then the maximum vehicle weighing error’s value is from ± 0.5% F.S + ± 0.3% RΟ (RΟ=Vehicle Weight).

INSTALLATION

No civil works or studies are required for installation. The equipment comes pre-installed, pre-calibrated and ready to be used out-of-the-box.
