What are the different weighing technologies used for onboard weighing scales?

Onboard Weighing Scales:

Typically onboard scales are used to find the weight of the loaded truck. This will helps to avoid the overloading and improves the payload maximising. By using on board weighing technologies we can minimise the running costs and leads to profit for the firm.

The on board weighing systems are categorized as based on the work space, where the truck is being loaded and the technology. Types of onboard weighing technologies are listed below

Types of onboard weighing technologies:

• Wheel Load Weighing
• Excavator Weighing System
• Dumper Payload Monitoring System
• Truck on-Board Weighing
• Forklift Weighing
• Reach stacker Weighing
• Grapple Weighing
• Underground Loader Weighing

Wheel Load Weighing:

wheel loader scale enables quick and efficient weighing while loading and moving materials with the wheel loader. Weighing information collected to the memory of the scale can be printed with each weighing or transferred to be utilized for business activities via USB, a cloud service or integration directly to an ERP or other system.

The accurate scale improves safety as well, as damage caused by overloading can be avoided and the railway wagon and truck can be loaded accurately without exceeding the allowed weight limits. Safety can also be increased with features such as an immobilizer system.

Excavator Weighing System:

The excavator machine works in remote areas where truck scales are far way and therefore the accuracy of the loads into the trucks has a prime importance, together with the data management sent for invoicing or production assessments directly from the Excavator machines. With helperXE installed onboard you are sure that each bucket is weighed, the load is within the allowed limits, the production is under control, the moved quantity is transmitted remotely for mining haulage analysis and stock inventory.

Dumper Payload Monitoring System:

• 

Weighing is accomplished by sensing the axle deformation caused by the load being placed in the body. Our hi-tech, heavy duty sensors are installed in such a way so as to provide an accurate weight whilst loading and operating in the toughest of site conditions. “A simple solution providing outstanding results”

Truck on-Board Weighing:

Benefit from load monitoring, fleet tracking and payload optimization with Vei On-board Weighing’s new overload protection system. True Load is specifically designed for larger capacity vehicles up to 60 tonns (66 tons), with mechanical and/or air spring suspension. Offering vehicle weight indication as standard for individual axles and vehicle gross, this overload protection system incorporates patented technology. 

Forklift Weighing:

The Weighing Concept is Very Simple

• Simply remove the existing forks from the carriage.
• Hook the weighing modules on the carriage
• Hook the existing forks back on to the front of the weighing modules.

This design is extremely robust and has fully protected electronics contained inside the mechanical assemblies.

Reach stacker Weighing:

Reach Stacker can save time and money by turning weighing into a one-step operation. The weighing system is built into the Reach Stacker hydraulic lift lines. So, you get an accurate weight reading simply by lifting the sea container at constant RPM past the speed sensor. It eliminates the need for loaded trucks to run over the weighbridge only to turn around if they are overloaded or under loaded. The machine operator can control all the weighing operations from a scale terminal mounted in the cab.

Grapple Weighing:

How many times your work is stopped because your load weight is not known and security is at risk, especially in a recycling job where working movements are limited. With grapple weighing you can now weigh your lifted loads and see the results in the machine cabin. With grapple weighing you can distinguish the different materials you are loading or moving around in your stock center, plan your supplies and know the sale trend all the year around. The grapple weighing is an investment that pays off in a little time and it is supported from VEI know-how in on board weighing and a specialized after sale team force.

Underground Loader Weighing:

Production control and Cost per ton analysis is a key issue on all mining sites. Machine wear due to loading is unknown unless the actual work the machine is doing can be analyzed.

VEI payload management systems allow rapid, user friendly tools to enable highly accurate data capture
