Electronic strain-meter scales for weighing heavy dump trucks while moving

Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The error of the scales when weighing stationary trucks fits within accuracy class 0.25.

  2. 2.

    When weighing trucks moving at a speed up to 6 km/h systematic errors are added to the instrumental errors, and the accuracy class of the scales drops to 0.5.

  3. 3.

    It is permissible to weigh moving trucks by axles with subsequent automatic summation of the weighing results to obtain the total mass of the truck.

With this method of weighing, the load receiver (weighing platform) is much shorter, and the expected error will not exceed 1%.
