Shipping Container Scales are normally used for attaining accurate weights of loaded shipping containers for freight purposes. Accuweigh’s Shipping Container Scales feature an extra heavy-duty construction to resist heavy knocks and bumps expected in this very demanding weighing application where large forklifts are usually used for manoeuvring the containers on and off the Shipping Container Scales.
The construction of Accuweigh’s Shipping Container Scales is unmatched in the weighing industry with the heavy-duty loadcells fully protected against both overloading and from side forces. All loadcell cabling is run in protective conduit. For added versatility, Accuweigh’s Shipping Container Scales can be optionally fitted with a heavy metal plate positioned across the main support beams to allow other items to be weighed as on a general purpose platform scale.
Optional fittings such as fork lift bumper stops are also available for added protection against accidental damage caused by external forces such as reversing trucks, etc. Four AccuCell heavy-duty industrial loadcells, each with a 30t capacity, are fitted to the Shipping Container Scales for an overall working capacity of 40t with full trade approval.
