The most important part in the weighbridge is loadcell. A Loadcell is a transducer which converts mechanical weight into electrical signals. There are different types of load cells like Compressor type, Cup, Ball and Shear beam type. We use double ended shear beam type loadcell made by “Sensortronics” a world’s no.1 load cell manufacturing company based in U.S.A. Sensotronics have their R&D facility in Chennai in India and they have their network across the globe. Even in the smallest of countries you will find “Sensotronics” with service network. In India they have their R&D center in Chennai. These are the only loadcellsWorldwide which are repairable. If anything happens to the load cell after 10 or 15 yrs, we will provide a standby loadcell to the site so that the weighbridge is not out of order for a single day and we take the faulty load cell to Chennai for repairs.

The loadcells that are installed by Rockway are pre-calibrated. Normally what people do is that they caliberate the weigh bridge on site with lower load capacities. For eg: Each load cell has a capacity of 20 tonnes. At site it’s not possible to keep 20 tonne of weigh at one particular point or one particular corner of the loadcell. So what people do is they get 5 tonnes of load and keep at the corner to caliberate.

• We are supplying Hi-Tech Double Ended Shear beam type load cells of capacity –20 Tonnes each.
• These Load cells are of SENSORTRONICS make (world leaders in Transducers -load cells/sensors & instrumentation).
• Our load cells are capable of withstanding vertical as well as horizontal loads, encountered on the stoppage and movements of trucks. Whereas, most of the other suppliers give compression type of load cells which cannot withstand horizontal load.
• Looking at the basic design of the compression / Column type load cells itself, a layman can also conclude that even the slight movement in the platform (which is unavoidable because of the acceleration & braking of the vehicles/ truck / trailors over the weighbridge platform) will cause drastic wear and tear to the load cell and hence result in faulty weights, unstable readings and variable weights at different corners of the weighbridge platform.
• Our load cells are having protection against LIGHTNING, RAIN WATER & DUST.
• Only Loadcells which are REPAIRABLE, incase any problem occurs in the later years. We shall also provide one free standby loadcell for the time of repairs so that your weighbridge is in working condition even for the time when the loadcell is send for the repairs.

We are market leaders in the manufacture and supply of Truck Weighbridges. Rockway has Truck Weighbridges of various kinds. They can be using a concrete platform or the more common steel platform. Foundation-less weighbridges are also supplied by us. We have pit-less type weighbridge or pit type weighbridge. Rockway also provides weighbridges which are fully Computerised, Unmanned weighbridges, Industrial weighbridges of all kinds.

Rockway is proud to introduce latest features like

• SMS Facility for all weighments.
• Computerised W/b for accessing data online.
• Unmanned weighbridges which do not required any human intervention ie they are fully automatic.
• CCTV integration with the weighbridge to give live feed of the site online.

Features :

• Accurate.
• Impeccable performance.
• High capacity.

Rockway’s Digital Indicator displays digital weighment and it also has a software and memory where it can generate a customized report. Our indicator has a inbuilt memory of 2 lakh transactions and it can take printouts in any form and at any stage or anytime. For eg: Today if you want to know on 15th Nov, 2008, how many transactions were there in the particular weighbridge ? So one has to the date and will get the full report on no. Of transactions, vehicle number, incoming and outgoing information and details of the customer or form where material is coming is stored in the inbuilt memory. Further the indicator can generate reports as per material, supplier, vehicle no., etc.

Platform what we are using is a M.S platform which is a mild steel structure and these are fully welded platform and we don’t recommend weighbridges with a nut bolt system because in a nut bolt systems when the truck keeps moving on the platform, so due to movement, speed and the brakes, the nut bolts become loose and your flatform will start giving noise and it’s joints will become weak and loose and you will have to keep on changing the nut bolts every now and then. Our platforms which are fully welded structures. Even after 20 yrs you will see they are intact. So we recommend fully welded structures. Our’s is a sectional frame. We don’t prefer longitudinal frames which are old designs on which if a overloaded truck comes then there will be a huge bend in the structure because longitudinal trucks are tend to bend incase of overload capacities.

But in our design we are giving cross sectional frame where only 2 main beams are there and other than that we give cross sectional frames, cross beams at ever 1-1 meter. So like this we make a cross sectional frame and on top of that there’s a plate on top of the plate there are MS flats. Those flats are given to give a anti-skid surface.

• Our platform has got more weight than the conventional platform used by other suppliers, hence it is more sturdy and strong for round the clock use.
• Made of ISMBs and anti-skid plates it is capable of continuously taking the designated load.
• We are supplying fully welded structure hence this does not require any kind of servicing. Other bidders mostly give nut-bolt type of platform, which is cheaper and requires continuous care and servicing with respect to replacing of the nuts and bolts.
• Our platform comprises of: ( 50 Tonnes – 7.5m X 3m ( 4 – Loadcell ))

Main beams ISMB = 450mm

Cross beams ISMB = 250mm

Cross beams ISMB = 200mm

Plate Thickness = 10mm

Total Weight = 4.6 Tonne
