Bulk/Aggregates
In the bulk and aggregates sector, precise weighing and force measurement are not just beneficial - they're essential for operational efficiency and compliance with stringent industry standards. Durability is a non-negotiable requirement in this sector, where equipment often operates under harsh conditions. In-line weighing systems are sought-after for their ability to minimize disruptions in material flow, although they often present a trade-off between cost and performance. Weighing and force measurement play a crucial role in various applications:
- Batching/Mixing Systems: Load cell are integral in automated batching systems, ensuring precise portioning and mixing of materials.
- Load-Out Operations: Load cells in load-out systems guarantee accurate material transfer onto ships, trucks, or rail cars, ensuring contractual compliance and reducing wastage.
- Loss-In-Weight & Fill Measurement: Ideal for monitoring material usage and inventory, these systems use load cells to measure in real time the weight of materials added or removed.
- On-Board Weighing Systems: Used in mobile concrete batching and other vehicular applications, our sensors ensure both safety and efficiency on mobile systems.
Some weighing equipment commonly found in the bulk and aggregates sectors:
- Truck Scales: Our heavy-duty load cells are used in truck scales to provide accurate weight measurements, helping to prevent under-filling, overloading, and ensuring safety.
- Rail Scales: Load cells are integrated or embedded underneath freight rails to aid in billing and ensuring compliance with weight restrictions.
- Floor Scales: Commonly used for weighing pallets, drums, or bags of bulk materials, our floor scales are designed for durability and accuracy.
- Hopper/Tank Scales: Load cells provide accurate weight data for stored materials, from grains to chemicals, thereby aiding in inventory management and process control.
