Bridging solutions and technology

The latest in global weighing technology for the transport and construction industries, is now available in Australia with the official launch of WIM Technologies.

WIM Technologies has an Australian agreement to distribute the successful Weigh In Motion (WIM) system developed by Intercomp, an American-based company who has been the world leader in the provision of superior quality, high performance scale solutions for over 40 years. Using Intercomp’s exclusive RFX® Wireless Weighing Technology, WIM Technologies’ weighing systems, provide highly accurate readings to boost your compliance, productivity, efficiency and safety.

The WIM system accurately weighs almost any type of commercial transportation vehicle at a variety of speeds. Applications include entry/exit gate management, inventory tracking and weight compliance.

So, how does it work? Scales are installed in a firm, flat area and connected by either cable or wirelessly to the data collection system. One or more portable LED display boards are installed near the scales to provide instant visual display to drivers. As the trucks roll onto the scales for either static or dynamic readings, detailed data is sent in real time to the customised WIM Technologies software.

Gross, net and tare readings are all collected by the system and displayed on the LED display board. The system also issues email notifications of overweight vehicles and/or axle groups and reports on all vehicles, overweight vehicles or vehicles by class with net and tare weights.

Users are able to identify vehicles using the RFID technology, or alternatively, they can manually type in vehicle registrations as identification. These weight limits can also be displayed on scoreboards showing truck, trailer and gross weights and can be set to show ‘Stop/Go’ depending on re-determined weight rules.

By using the WIM Technologies system it significantly reduces the risk of your company’s vehicles failing to comply with applicable load limits. It ensures that loads leaving the site are within the vehicle’s legal mass limits (GVM), providing the best possible protection against the risk of potential legal penalties and fines.
