Ground Weighbridge

A Typical Example

1, Trucks wait, for clearance to access Weighbridge ramps (either Traffic Lights, Speakers, Large Displays optional)

2, Once go ahead is given, the truck travels slowly up the ramps on to the weighbride deck, stopping when truck fully on deck

3, The bridge has been calibrated to Zero, the load cells, detects a change in weigh

4,The Load Cell sensing or spring element is designed in such a way it develops a strain, directly proportional to the load applied

5, The strain gages, are usually connected in a multiple of four, called a Wheatstone bridge configuration - converting the very small change in resistance into a usable electrical signal.

6, The electrical signal is converted by the instrumentation, and shows the trucks weight on the indicators

7,The driver & operator, now knows if the truck complies with CoR Legislation

8,The truck driver can exit the via the ramp, once the go ahead is given and its safe to proceed

9,The truck driver can then proceed on its journey or reload their truck to keep them legal, as well make sure there not under loaded or over loaded.
