Truck Speed Humps
Accuweigh truck speed humps minimise damage to weighbridge load cells caused by heavy truck braking. Accuweigh’s truck speed humps are manufactured in heavy gauge steel to cope with heavy vehicles movements over the weighbridge.
Truck speed humps should be fitted to multi-deck weighbridges which are particularly susceptible to damage caused by heavy truck braking due to the compounding forces generated between the multiple weighbridge decks. Heavy braking forces can be transmitted from loaded decks through to unloaded decks when trucks entering the weighbridge brake suddenly.
Use of truck speed humps ensures a consistently lower approach speed of trucks entering the weighbridge thereby minimising the potential of excessive weighbridge decks movements during truck braking.
Accuweigh’s weighbridge speed humps are manufactured in 10mmm thick checker plate reinforced with heavy steel gussets to ensure an extended working life. All metalwork is hot dip galvanised to eliminate potential corrosion in damp environments and the truck speed humps are firmly bolted in place using multiple Chemsets anchoring bolts in the concrete approaches.
Accuweigh is Australia’s largest supplier of weighbridges and offers a complete range of weighbridge accessories to suit all weighbridge requirements.
