Mobile Process Weighing System
The new Mobile Process Weighing System allows you to accurately weigh and batch in portable tanks or vessels to speed up production time, improve safety, and minimize bacteria collection points found in traditional floor scales. This system consists of special load cells that simply bolt between the tank leg and the standard swivel casters already on the vessel, utilizing the standard 6 inch caster bolt pattern with no modifications to the tank needed. The secret is the “moment corrected” technology inside the load cells that compensates for the inherent pinching action of the swivel casters and provides accurate weighments even on floors that are not level. These load cells may be used with a variety of different weighing indicators depending upon the application and data collection requirements. This disruptive and proven technology is used globally with hundreds of installations in multiple industries.
