Our Low- Cost Mechanical Solution For Onboard Weighing
We will get in touch with you shortly
The ‘FREIGHT MATE’ onboard weighing system is our low cost mechanical weighing solution. It displays a weight reading of any lifted load on a large, easy-to-read 150mm dial.
You can rely on this system to perform accurately and reliably on most forklifts and reach trucks thanks to its heavy-duty construction.
The benefits of fitting a ‘Freight Mate’ weigher to your machinery include:
Features & Benefits
The 'Freight Mate' uses a Bourdon tube which measures hydraulic pressure - a method widely acclaimed for its superior sensitivity, linearity, and accuracy.
A Bourdon tube is a curled-up, flattened metal tube with the base-end held fixed near the pressure inlet while the tip-end is free to move. Any pressure inside the tube tends to unflatten the cross-section which strains the Bourdon tube tip to straighten. Any movement in the tip is sensed by a linkage that is attached to the indicator mechanism and drives the needle to display a weight measurement on the gauge. | Feature: | Description |
