Does weighing while driving work?

Yes. Our modern wheel loader scales weigh on the move. The system is fully dynamic, meaning you can lift and drive at the same time and still get stable, repeatable readings without having to stop. 

Why it works in motion 

  • Filtration which compensates for lifting speed, travelling speed and machine movements 
  • Speed-independent measurement that do not require a specific engine speed 

Best practices for high precision 

  • Drive and lift evenly when weight is taken 
  • Keep the load centred in the bucket 
  • Road on as flat a surface as possible 
  • Tare weighing at regular intervals 
  • Select the right tool in the scale menu 

Everyday tips 

  • Make regular check path against known reference or travelling scale 
  • Clean the bucket from material residues 
  • Recalibration for major machine or implement service jobs 

Quick troubleshooting if the value jumps 

  1. Zero and secure empty bucket 
  1. Check raw values and sensor cables 
  1. Verify against reference or driving scale
