The X7b Low‑Speed and X7a High‑Speed Weigh‑In‑Motion (WIM) Systems deliver precise, real‑time vehicle weighing and classification for smarter, safer, and more efficient road networks.

With increasing focus on mass management and overloading regulations, accurate truck weighing is essential for safety and compliance. Since Australia’s 2018 Chain of Responsibility (CoR) law changes, transport businesses must integrate a vehicle weighing system into their safety management process.

Knowing your truck’s axle weights, groupings, and total weight helps improve road safety, reduce wear and tear, and prevent costly overloading fines.

There are many weighing options available, from commercial weighbridges to portable truck scales. While weighbridges require more space, portable systems offer flexibility and speed. For CoR compliance, most operators only need non-trade-certified scales to monitor axle weights, unless the weight determines a sale price (e.g., recycling).

With over 95 years of weighing expertise, Trakblaze offers reliable, industry-proven products such as the FORCE1 Truck Axle Weigher and TRUCKMATE Portable Truck Scale. Both systems deliver precision, portability, and performance weighing a full truck and trailer in under 12 seconds.

The TRUCKMATE system, designed with law enforcement agencies, features ultra-low 18mm-high slimline pads with 20 high-accuracy load cells per pad and comes in both wired and wireless versions.

Trakblaze also provides full weighbridge maintenance, calibration, and upgrade services to keep your equipment accurate, compliant, and reliable.

WHY ARE ROAD WEIGHBRIDGES WIDELY IN USE?

Road Weighbridges are mostly used to weigh big vehicles such as road trucks where products are transported by vehicles. Any industry that makes use of weighbridges benefits from reliable and precise weighing since it provides the exact numbers and weightage for maintaining items and goods inward and outside.

HOW DOES A ROAD WEIGHBRIDGE WORK?

The majority of weighbridges run via load-cell systems. These load cells are built of a long-lasting material like stainless steel or alloy. Strain gauges would subsequently be implanted in or linked to these cells. Users can weigh as well as digitally record the weight of their vehicle and its goods using a road weighbridge.

WHAT DOES A ROAD WEIGHBRIDGE MEASURE?

A Road Weighbridge is widely used to assess the weight of items that are to be transported; also a load of goods on each axle of a vehicle before the vehicle travels on a public road to ensure that it is not overloaded.

WHAT IS THE INTEGRATION OF A ROAD WEIGHBRIDGE?

Road Weighbridge Integration is done by various types of monitoring equipment such as traffic lights and management signs, CCTV and control barriers. It achieves it by using snapshots taken while the vehicle is on the weighing scale to manage and, therefore verify transactions. It makes it simple to manage data from a single source.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE LIFESPAN OF A WEIGHBRIDGE?

The average weighbridge owner expects it to survive 10 to 20 years, however, this varies on a number of factors. While purchasing a weighbridge, picking the suitable scale choice and the quality manufacturer is important as it determines whether your scale has a long or short life. Therefore, the manufacturing quality must be kept in mind when purchasing a weighbridge.
