Weighbridges – An Industry Essential

Ever noticed ‘Dharam Kanta’ on the highway? These are weighbridges or a truck scale that is a complete set of scale which is used to weigh bulk items. The vehicles are weighed through a set of scales which are mounted by the weighbridge manufacturer on a concrete surface, displaying the weight on an electronic or digital monitor.

Mostly where heavy loads are transported through trucks, weighbridges come into the picture to help in measuring or weighing the large containers or the carriage. Weighbridge manufacturers in India provide scales on which trucks are weighed with the load and then again once unloaded to find out the gap. And you my dear, are wiser enough to understand that all the story runs around in order to find this gap, which is the actual weight of the contents of a truck or container. Reliable and accurate weighing helps the industry by giving them the exact figures to maintain their goods inward and goods outward.

Weighbridges can have types and kinds as per the need namely electronic pit type or pit less, digital pit type or pit less, rail weighbridge, portable weighbridge, RCC weighbridge, mechanical weighbridges, etc. So in simple words, it weighs the truckloads entering the manufacturing unit as a supply or leaving the manufacturing unit as a finished product, on the way to hit the market. Both the situation needs measurement and evaluation which is thereby achieved through weighbridges on the entry or exit.

Also, these weighbridges help highway authorities in a way by limiting the load over a vehicle in line with road safety. The slips from these public weighbridges work as a tool to get a permit of transit across the states. There can be a number of uses and general applications that make weighbridges an integral part of industries. Amar Scales and Engineers are one of the leading Weighing Bridges (Dharam Kanta) manufacturers with current international design and quality.
