In the process of cargo transportation by road, special electronic scales are necessary for control. With their help, you can prevent the exit of overloaded vehicles on public roads. When choosing the optimal scales on the website, it is worth considering several important factors. Including decide on a stationary or mobile version.
Stationary design
For accurate and long-term operation, this version of the truck scale requires a high-quality reinforced concrete base. Flat ground, no slope in any direction. A rather expensive installation is only suitable for transport companies and enterprises with their own, permanent territory. And the main advantages should be highlighted:
- good protection against negative operating factors;
- need periodic maintenance;
- can withstand a significant temperature difference;
- the accuracy of readings depends on the manufacturer of the equipment;
- built-in overload protection of the platform.
Stationary scales for trucks are more expensive, and do not always have more accurate readings than mobile counterparts. Nevertheless, they justify their operation in certain conditions.
Universal mobile truck scales
The whole structure is mounted on a metal platform or a frame made of a channel. Thanks to a well-thought-out design, the scales are able to resist the destruction of both static and dynamic loads. For their normal operation, a relatively flat area is required, ordinary asphalt or reinforced concrete slabs are sufficient. The main advantages of the design include:
1. The widest possible scope of operation.
2. Weighing accuracy varies from 20 to 50 kg.
3. The maximum load on the entire platform is up to 80 tons.
4. Ease of transportation on a conventional cargo platform.
5. Allows the length of transport along the extreme axes up to 18 meters.
Mobile truck scales have become more widespread, since they do not require reference to the terrain. They can be easily transported to any distance. Use both outdoors and in warehouses.
