Rail Scales
Rail Scales
Rail weighing is crucial in virtually every aspect of rail operation, from monitoring product deliveries to avoiding overloading penalties. Some of the reasons for weighing rail cars and wagons include:
- To invoice clients for the amount of product shipped
- To ensure your shipper isn’t overcharging
- To determine the weight of cars and wagons to collect freight revenue
- To avoid overloading and avoid eccentric loading, which can damage cars, wagons and rail infrastructure and lead to derailments
- To minimize high impact loads, especially at track discontinuities like track joints, turnouts and crossings
We offer a range of accurate, affordable and robust train and rail weighing scales.
The Weighline rail scale is rugged and accurate modular system. With a full draft system it can achieve accuracies of ± 0.25% or better and has OIML R60 and R106 certificates of conformity.
Integration with back-office systems for better data management
The Weighline rail scale provides precision data on train and rail car weights that can be transmitted to your business systems via a PC.
Reports can be linked to individual rail car, load and destination IDs to help monitor deliveries to and from customers and suppliers.
