Portable & Accurate Train Weighing Anytime, Anywhere
The MTW – Mobile Train Weigher by TRAKBLAZE is a lightweight, portable, and highly accurate train weighing system designed for static and in-motion weighing. Unlike traditional train weighbridges, the MTW is transportable in a car boot and can be installed in just 10-15 minutes without requiring track downtime or costly civil works.
Take the scale to the train and weigh any rail vehicle, wagon, or locomotive with precision and flexibility.
Want even greater speed and accuracy? The MTW can be upgraded to the MTW-MS (Mobile Train Weigher – Multiple Systems) to weigh trains at higher speeds with greater precision while also assisting in rail track leveling and train balancing.

Our Product Types
Volumetric Scanning is becoming more frequent in both Mining and Rail sectors for a variety of good reasons; in understanding the volume of material from the ground, irrespective of its weight.
The most single cause of derailments is unbalanced loads, and the single most efficient way to better fuel economy is to ensure rail bogies are balanced.
Mobile train weigher is commonly described as a load-cell based rail weighing system which fits into the inner sides of most conventional rails.
Weighbridges are used in industries that manufacture or move bulk items, such as in mines or quarries, to transport and rail companies moving bulk items.
The global transport industry and governing departments are now investing a conservative effort in reducing transport-related accidents associated with mass management and overloading.
