In-cab weigh display
November 1st 2011

A wireless in cab display showing weighbridge weight is helping Craven Grain Storage maximise the loading of outbound vehicles. The Avery Weigh-Tronix solution has halved the manpower, increased the speed and accuracy of loading, and improved health and safety on the site.

Avery Weigh-Tronix developed a wireless remote display unit to show the weighbridge weight in the cab of the loading vehicle. The unit is mounted on the top of the windscreen so the shovel driver can see the weighbridge weight and look at the shovel, while slowly tipping the load into the trailer.

"The new system means we can confidently load the vehicle to a specified weight faster and free up manpower for other critical tasks. It also means that there is no need for anyone to be around the weighbridge area on foot during loading," says Dale Payne, manager at Craven Grain.
