It is often necessary to weigh the load carried by the vehicle. In order not to unload and reload goods or raw materials, many transport companies use truck scales. The principle of operation is as follows: first, an empty car is weighed, then a loaded one, or vice versa. The difference in weights is the mass of the load.
There are varieties of truck scales. For example, for weighing in static: track, platform, electronic scales, for weighing in motion: electronic mortise. In addition to the weighing function, automobile scales control wheel and axle loads, which must comply with the standards.
Construction, metallurgy, mining, fuel and raw materials industries need weighing transport with raw materials. Often there is no other way to find out the mass of minerals. In trade, it is also convenient to control the safety of cargo with the help of truck scales, because it is difficult to carry out an audit in a full truck.
Modern electronic scales transmit information to remote access, store all data about the car, its weight. With their help, all the necessary calculations of the required values of the specified parameters are performed. Thus, the balance plays the role of a computer assistant.
Vehicle weights can be installed using a foundation, without a foundation, by means of a cut-in method and by laying. The most cost-effective method is the interlayer, it uses simple structures and is small in size. Such scales are installed directly on asphalt, soil.
