When it comes to weighing large vehicles, it’s important to understand the different types of truck scales available. Walz Scale provides a variety of scales to meet the needs of the transportation, agriculture, chemical, laboratory, aggregate, waste, recycling, and mining industries. Understanding the different types of truck scales available will help you select the right one for your needs.
Truck Scales
While there are different types of scales for weighing trucks, the term truck scales itself is generally used when referring to industrial scales designed to weigh large vehicles, such as semi-trailers, tankers, and other heavy-duty vehicles. Truck scales are typically used in transportation, agriculture, and mining industries. They are designed to weigh large loads with precision and accuracy.
Wheel Weighers
Wheel weighers are a type of truck scale that allows vehicles to be weighed without having to stop. This is ideal for transportation companies that are trying to get their vehicles out on the roads quickly. The wheel weighers are placed underneath the wheels of the vehicle and they measure the weight of the vehicle by taking into account the weight on each wheel.
Axle Scales
Axle scales are another type of truck scale that are designed to weigh individual axles of a vehicle. This type of scale is typically used in manufacturing, transportation, and mining industries. Axle scales are great for weighing individual axles, which helps to ensure the weight of vehicles is evenly distributed. This type of scale is also often used to ensure that vehicles are safe to drive on roads.
Portable Truck Scales
Portable truck scales are a type of truck scale that can be moved from one location to another. This type of scale is ideal for transportation companies that need to weigh vehicles at multiple locations. Portable truck scales are also great for agricultural operations, where farmers need to weigh multiple vehicles in a short amount of time.
