Weighbridges serve a significant part in the concrete industry since they are used to weigh materials such as sand, gravel, crushed stone, cement, and water.

Essae Digitronics has developed unique solutions for the concrete industry, which will be showcased at the World of Concrete India 2024, which will take place at the Mumbai Exhibition Centre on October 16th, 17th, and 18th.

Types of Concrete Weighbridges

  • Pit Weighbridge: Pit Weighbridge, as the name suggests, is installed after digging a pit and involves civil work. However, it saves space, and the platform is level with the pavement. This enables simple entry of vehicles on the platform and simple access to weighbridge components.

  • Pitless Weighbridges: These weighbridges are installed on the surface and don’t require excavation work. It is easier to install but requires ramp space, unlike the pit weighbridges.

Essae Concrete Weighbridges are available in platform sizes of weighbridges are 7.5 m x 3 m, 9 m x 3 m, 12 x 3 m, 15 x 3 m, and 18 x 3 m. The weighbridges are built to weigh trucks from 40 tonnes to 150 tonnes.

Uses of Weighbridge in Concrete Industry

1. Weighing of raw materials such as aggregates, cement, and sand.

2. Weighing of outgoing concrete products such as ready-mix concrete, precast concrete.

3. Weighing of aggregate stockpiles stored in inventory.

4. For accuracy in batching and concrete mixing.

 

Why Essae Weighbridges?

In the construction industry, accuracy of load measurements is vital for safety and efficiency. Essae Digitronics uses advanced digital technology and durable materials in the design of weighbridges. Accuracy in weighing ensures time completion of projects and optimised resource allocation.

Use of high-quality steel, shot-blasting, and epoxy coating provides long-lasting corrosion protection irrespective of the environment. Each weighbridge is pre-calibrated before delivery to ensure accuracy of measurements and conforms to stringent quality standards.

Essae have pioneered the weighbridges for large weight categories with over 16000 installations in the past three decades. More importantly, Essae provides best-in-class indicators that are capable of standalone operations or when connected to a PC. It can store up to 20,000 records. It provides RS232, RS485 Ethernet, and a networking interface. It has a standard alphanumeric keypad for faster data entry. Use of double-ended shear beam load cells eliminates friction and provides free movement in horizontal position. Essae Digitronics is participating in the World of Concrete India 2024held on 16th, 17th, and 18th of October at the Mumbai Exhibition Centre, Mumbai. See us at Booth No. D48, Hall No. 4.
