On-board weighing- An overview

On-board weighing is used in a wide variety of material handling applications where material is loaded into trucks, bays or processing lines. By measuring hydraulic pressure in the lift cycle, the RDS range of on-board weighing instruments give a display in the cab of each bucket load and the total material loaded.

From the entry level single channel instrument such as the Loadlog 500+ to the Loadmaster 9000 trade-approved system, RDS offers the widest choice of on-board weighing equipment on the market. With the optional accessories available, these instruments can be further enhanced to solve practically every on-board weighing requirement.
