The Weigh of the Future

The ‘weigh’ of the future is here. WIM Technologies uses exclusive Wireless Weighing Technology in its weighing systems to provide highly accurate readings for Australia’s transport and logistics industry.

There are three versions of our weighing products to choose from, allowing you to select the system which best fits your company’s needs.  All of which are now available for lease or purchase.


1. WIM Tech Portable Scales

Our WIM Tech Portable Scales are a fully portable weighing solution, ideal for mobile compliance checks or use on short term job sites. Capable of both static or dynamic weighing, the Portable Scale system takes approximately 15 minutes to set-up and only requires four rollup ramps, two scales and an indicator (CPU or PC).

The weighing indicators can either be connected through wireless communication or, for a more robust connection, via cable. A docket printer is available as an option and the custom-built WIM Technologies software, which powers the system will be installed for you by one of WIM Tech’s technicians.

Once set up, the dynamic accuracy of the Portable Scales can be as low as between 2 – 3%, depending on the site conditions and static accuracy meets International Organisation of Legal Metrology (OIML) requirements.


2. Strip Sensors WIM

Our Strip Sensor system is a series of strain gauge load cell sensors inserted into the roadway in sets or rows. Capable of being applied to existing roadway or new road base, our Strip Sensors use technology that takes full advantage of fast response times and large sampling rates to improve accuracy in Weigh In Motion weighing.

Up to four pairs will be required depending on the application and accuracy required. Their simple installation method significantly reduces downtime due to road closures. The Strip Sensors are perfect for ensuring compliance and are suitable for dynamic weighing at speeds of up to 100 km/h. Their insertion into the road surface itself means there are minimal installation costs and they are maintenance free.

They are an ideal solution for roadways where there is limited room for access lanes and where site space restrictions prohibit the use of large excavation equipment.


3. Low Speed WIM

Our Low Speed WIM system consists of a single deck pad with four shear beam load cells that are certified for accuracy and performance.

Their robust single piece construction makes them suitable for both static

or dynamic measurements and they require only a small footprint for installation.

This scale is normally incorporated into a new concrete slab however this could also be constructed into an existing roadway with minimal civil works. The scales are connected through a CPU to a PC to provide an accurate display of weight distribution though each axle.

Low Speed WIM scales can be utilised in static mode with an accuracy of +/- 0.1%. They are also most suitable for dynamic applications to keep traffic moving; thus eliminating delays due to queuing trucks.
