During the truck spec’ing process fleets want to know the impact that changing specs can have on overall weight.
In an effort to support emergency relief efforts in response to the coronavirus outbreak, Illinois is allowing 88,000 pounds (or an additional 10% above legal loads on fewer axles) for trucks assisting with emergency relief.
CURT has introduced a Bluetooth-enabled, smartphone-compatible mobile towing scale called BetterWeigh.
Fairbanks Scales Inc. announced the new Talon Low Profile Truck Scale, ideal for replacing older, low-profile scales reaching the end of their service life.
VPG Onboard Weighing introduced the second generation VanWeigh axle overload monitoring system, an overload protection and load optimization system for light commercial vehicles.
By allowing trucks to bypass scales, Drivewyze enables drivers to deliver loads at a faster rate while maximizing paid driving time.
Fairbanks Scales Inc. announced the new FH and FHX Series hydraulic forklift weighing systems, ideal for a variety of forklift applications from general check weighing for warehouse racking, to capturing high accuracy weights for shipping.
Fairbanks’ PALS eliminates the need for a pier or slab foundation. It is constructed in a sub-frame, requiring only a flat, unyielding surface to install and complete the unit. This makes it possible to install PALS on concrete or asphalt already in place.
Defined by two key measurements, yield strength and percent elongation, steel is being evaluated by a growing number of fleet managers.
Axle capacities are limited either by the axle capacity or the legal weight limits, whichever is lower. Performing a weight distribution analysis can achieve the proper axle loadings before a truck is built.
