New on-board weighing systems
October 1st 2011 New from RDS Technology, the Simon Emery chairman of CFTS.
Loadmaster iX range of on-board
weighing instruments for wheeled
loaders features temperature
compensation, which enhances
system performance particularly on
machines with a wide variation in
operating temperature. Angle
compensation provides an additional
level of precision,
beneficial on most sites
and not only those with
obvious slopes.
The Loadmaster
8000iX has an integral
SD card port for the fast
and efficient transfer of data between
loader and weighbridge or office PC
and enables pre-registered customer
reference data to be uploaded directly
to the unit.
Also available is the tradeapprovable
Loadmaster 9000i.When
fitted to a wheeled loading shovel,
this on-board weighing scale
effectively transforms the loader into
a mobile weighbridge which
conforms to MID Class Y(b) levels of
accuracy.
The company has recently gained
approval via the UK National
Measurements Office to self-verify its
instruments. Subject to formal
training by RDS, this approval
extends to all EU RDS distributors.
This will dramatically
speed up verification
times and reduce end
user costs.
For further bespoke
data management
options, the
Loadmaster 9000i DMM features an
extended data-handling module. This
has been specially designed with the
integral SD card port central to the
system. Up to six separate reference
fields for each truck loading cycle can
be stored in a comprehensive
database for detailed record keeping. More articles from RDS Technology Ltd: |
