Weigh Bridge

The Tuff-Deck series concrete flat deck design vehicle scale is an economical alternative to steel deck models. The weigh bridge is a composite design which mechanically connects the steel structure with the poured in place concrete resulting in extremely low deflection ratios, less fatigue and unusual long life. The TDC series is available in pitless and pit models. All decks are fitted with corrosion proof PVC conduits and fibreglass Nema 4 x junction boxes.

Load Cells

The Tuff-Deck series vehicle scales utilize NTEP approved, all 17-4 PH and 316 stainless steel constructed, 30 tonne capacity, Rocker Pin design load cells. State of the art manufacturing processes ensure reliability and accuracy. Cables have external armoured braiding to prevent damage from abrasion and chewing rodents. These load cells are hermetically sealed and IP69 rated for submission under 1 meter of water for 100 hours with out allowing moisture intrusion.

Load Cell Mounts

The rocker pin load cell mounting system is a simple design consisting of a lower foundation plate and upper weighbridge plate, each with a tool steel hardened bearing to transfer load forces to the rocker pin load cell. This system allows a 360° free floating, self centering weighbridge. A rubber boot is clamped onto the load cell encasing the lower bearing protecting it from contaminants. This simple mounting arrangement allows load cell replacement in a matter of minutes, reducing down time and lowering service costs.
