PRECISIONLOADS
High-Accuracy On-Board Weighing Systems For Semi-Trailer Vehicles

Accurate and reliable payload measurement is an important element of profitability and operating safety bulk hauling. Whether for municipal, county, state or private operations, a PRECISIONLOADS on-board scale system allows optimum, safe and legal use of a truck's payload capacity--both for maximizing loads and preventing the liabilities of overloading.

No more Overweight Fines: The expense of operating overloaded is already prohibitive in many regions and is becoming a serious issue nationwide. Enforcement is increasing and penalties are becoming more costly.

Eliminate Legal Liabilities: The potential costs to a hauler from lawsuits resulting from an accident involving an overloaded truck can be severe.

Ensure Operating Safety: Overloaded trucks have significantly impaired braking distances and cornering abilities, and are more likely to experience premature failures of truck components.

Cut Maintenance Costs: Hauling legal payloads reduces maintenance expense on springs, brakes and tires, and increases the operating lifetime of the truck and body.

Increase Driver Efficiency: Our on-board scales give your drivers the assurance of hauling legal. With scales, drivers finish routes more efficiently and faster with full, legal loads.

PRECISIONLOADS kits are simple to install, typically requiring between 8 and 20 man-hours per truck, including wiring. Several mounting design options are available from Precision Loads, and the system selected will depend on the type of equipment and the intended use of the scale system, i.e. payload maximization or split load/delivery.

Tractor 5th Wheels can be fit with bolt-down load cell kits:

Air-ride suspension transducer kits may be used on either tractor or trailer or both:
Kingpin Plate Load cells allow for a complete, self-contained trailer scale system:
Tandem equalizing spring suspensions use center hanger load cell assemblies:
Trunnion Loadpin fits Single-point Suspensions for Logging and End-dump Trailers:
Single, Dual and Four Channel indicator models suit a wider range of on-board scale applications.

Bright Liquid Crystal Display lets the operator view all channels and total simultaneously while loading.

Smart Transmitters automatically identify trailer interchanges for true Plug-and-Go operation.

Simple Diagnostics allow each system component to be quickly checked from the cab.

System electronics are designed for simplicity. Display units may be mounted in the truck cab or environmentally-protected units are available for external mounting. The PL9700 Digital Display provides operators with: Total Truck Gross Weight, Net Payload Weight, Steering Axle Weight, Drive Axle Weight.
