UltraHawke Scales and Systems has supplied a set of heavy duty platform scales to GB Galvanizing at Dandenong to ensure that it is charging customers for the correct amount of zinc used in the galvanizing process.
UltraHawke Scales and Systems’ heavy duty platform scales are trade approved and measure 6m long by 2.4m wide with a capacity of 8,000kg to enable GB Galvanizing to weigh beams up to 24m long and 5,000 kg weight.
Four Kelba KA5000 loadcells are used in the platform scales which feature a Floating Deck platform design to minimise potential loadcell damage caused by accidental side loading/forces applied to the weighing surface of the platform scales.
A Rinstrum R5000 digital weight indicator is used to generate the weight readings which are then transmitted to a Rinstrum D740 large digit remote display to ensue both the forklift and crane operators can easily see the weight readings.
