Accuweigh Weighbridge For Scrap Metal Recycler


Weighbridge

A weighbridge was recently installed for Simsmetal’s Port Macquarie depot for weighing local scrap metal collections. The positioning of the weighbridge required Accuweigh’s Newcastle branch to take special measures to ensure the weighbridge installation fully complied with government weighbridge regulations.

The heavy duty weighbridge supplied is 20 metres long by 3 metres wide and uses 6 x Flintec stainless steel weighbridge loadcells with an IP68 rating.  A Rinstrum R5000 digital weight indicator is fitted to the side of the weighbridge and transmits the weight readings to the weighbridge office (the main display must be within 6 metres of the weighbridge).

A Rinstrum R323 remote display inside the weighbridge office displays the weight readings to the weighbridge operator and also relays the weight to a PC running Simsmetal’s own weighbridge software. A Rinstrum D740 large digit remote display is mounted outside the weighbridge office and displays the weight readings to the truck driver.

Simsmetal is the largest metal recycler in the southern hemisphere and has operations in Australasia, UK and USA. As a buyer, processor and supplier of scrap metal, Simsmetal provides a consistent and reliable supply of all grades of recycled ferrous and non ferrous metals to industrial customers around the world.

Accuweigh is Australia’s largest industrial weighing company with branches in all mainland states to provide Australia wide coverage for national clients.
