We continue to talk about the main malfunctions arising during the operation of truck scales, as well as negligent attitude towards the project of suppliers.
Cleaning and washing of truck scales from accumulated dirt and ice.
The main reason for the appearance of such a problem is the failure to comply with mandatory routine maintenance. As a result, there is an excessive accumulation of snow masses and ice under the weight platform in the winter period, and in the summer period there is an accumulation of dirt, which leads to a decrease in the gap between the platform and the foundation. Also, snow and dirt can get on the supports of the strain gauge, this all affects the accuracy of the readings when weighing, and in case of a large accumulation, to the failure of the scales.
Maintenance work:
- it is necessary to carry out industrial cleaning of the space under the scales to remove contamination.
The reason for such a repair can be several factors, and sometimes their combination. Violations were made during the installation of scales, the absence of external protection of the cable, the growth of ice on the cable, and mechanical damage.
Repair work:
- carrying out work to restore the integrity of switching.
Destruction of the load cell and the embedding unit
The main reason for such a breakdown is incorrect work in the organization of weighing. The permissible speed limit was violated, as well as the maximum axle load when two cars arrived.
Repair work:
- carrying out work on dismantling the destroyed strain gauge and the built-in unit, replacing and installing a new strain gauge and restoring the integrity of the built-in unit,
- Carrying out fine tuning of truck scales,
- passing an extraordinary state verification.
Strain gauge split.
The main reason for such a malfunction is the incorrect organization of the weighing process, violation of the speed limit when entering the loading platform and sudden braking of loaded vehicles.
Repair work:
- lifting the load platform of the scales,
- dismantling of the destroyed strain gauge,
- installation of a new strain gauge,
- Carrying out fine tuning of truck scales,
- passing an extraordinary state verification.
The main reason for the occurrence of such a malfunction is the failure to comply with technological standards in construction, including the use of low-quality concrete.
Repair work:
- carrying out a complete dismantling of truck scales,
- restoration of the foundation, including supporting platforms and the strength of embedded elements,
- carrying out work on the installation of truck scales,
- Carrying out fine tuning of truck scales,
- passing an extraordinary state verification.
