Weigh Beams lead the way

Griffith Elder introduce new Portable Weigh Beams

20th March 2009 - In 2009 Griffith Elder have introduced Portable Weigh Beams into their product list. This new product is a development in portable weighbridges, enabling industrial vehicles to monitor their load quickly and accurately at any given location.

The previous portable weighbridge model, the TonTel™ Full Size Portable Weighbridge, has proved very popular over a wide range of industries, from agriculture to recycling, where portability is of prime importance. The new Portable Weigh Beams are a step up from this earlier model, being lighter and easier to install.

The Portable Weigh Beams use Griffith Elder’s own Split-Weigh digital system ensuring that maximum accuracy is guaranteed at all times. Extensive tests were done at a road stone quarry in Australia on truck and dog vehicles with the Split-Weigh Truck Scale. The difference in accuracy between the Split-Weigh system and using a full-size weighbridge was found negligible. The Weigh Beams deploy the same Split-Weigh mechanism in a portable weighbridge, providing an easy-to-use option for accurate weighing to suit all types of vehicle.
