A payload monitoring system was recently installed on a hook truck to ensure the truck conforms to legal load limits at all times.
Accuweigh’s payload monitoring system was fitted by Alukram’s Revesby plant for a major client in NSW’s waste industry.
Large industrial skip bins are dragged directly onto the chassis mounted load cells of the payload monitoring system to weigh the bin and its contents. The digital weight indicator component of the payload monitoring system is fitted in the truck cab for the driver to view the actual weight of the truck’s payload.
Overload warnings are generated both audibly and visually by the payload monitoring system to ensure the truck driver is fully aware of instances of overloading. A Tally roll printer is available with duplicate copies to record all weighing transactions if required.
Accuweigh is the exclusive Australian agent for PM Onboard – one of Europe’s largest manufacturers and supplies of onboard truck weighing equipment.
