Truck Scales Built Tough
Load cell pockets
which
are welded or bolted to outer
I-beams make
it possible for too
much bending and flexing, creating
damage to the weighbridge. Bumper bolts ease
and break.
Check rods bind. Rice Lake’s SURVIVOR® series truck scales are
designed with the load cell pocket incorporated
into the steel framework
of the scale. The pocket is
built within
the outer I-beam, providing
a
more resilient,
long-lasting load cell pocket.
Load cell pockets are made out of heavy-duty steel plates incorporated into the style of the scale. Large wide-flange I-beams surround the pocket adding it in to the weighbridge structure. This offers incredible durability and integrity to a very critical section of the weighbridge. The SURVIVOR® series scales feature the G-Force™ self-checking mounting system, doing away with the demand for check rods or bumper bolts. G-Force removes excessive movement by utilizing 100 % of the loading action against itself. This self-centering action or pendulum suspension does away with binding and protects load cells from detrimental side load shocks common to trucks starting and stopping on the scale.
