Forklift Operators are seldom provided load weight information on whether each individual load is within the lifting weight specifications of their forklift capacity or within the load limits of their racking capacity before completing a putaway activity.
Similarly ensuring transport vehicles are not loaded in excess of the legal weight capacity or managing the weight of freight for either charging or being charged transportation costs can be important.
The Fork Weigh PWI-25/100 pressure weight scales provide at a glance the immediate weight of a load indicated on the digital display to the Forklift Operator. This system is a load weight indicator and no a certified weight scale.
The Fork Weigh system uses the pressure from the lift cylinder to calculate within 2% of the forklifts total capacity.
The functionality of Fork Weigh digital display provides a host of data such as:
- Gross / Net weighing
- Automatic and manual tare weight entry
- Totalisation with sequence number
- Error message display
- Automatic switch off two hrs after non use
- Overload protection 300%
Our digital display LNW Mk11 can print weight dockets, carry out weight conversions kilograms / pounds and send this data and other reporting functions via radio frequency to a remote location.
Benefits reduce:
- Overloading Forklift incidents
- Overloading Racking incidents
- Dangerous incidents, damage and injury
