Garbage Truck On-Board Weighing
A garbage disposal company wants a system to weigh the load capacity of their garbage truck bins.
A garbage disposal company wants to test the load capacity of their garbage truck bins. They need a force measurement system that will show them when it has reached maximum capacity.
Interface’s solution is to customize four SSB Sealed Beam Load Cells under the garbage box body with customer required capacity installed on either side by the customer with truck manufacturers guidance. This insures they are following the transportation department’s safety requirement and the manufacturer’s. When trash continues to be piled inside the box body, it will push more force down onto the SSB Sealed Beam Load Cells. When maximum load capacity has been reached, the results can be reviewed and displayed when connected to the 4850 Battery Powered Bluetooth Weight Indicator in real time.
The customer was able to test the maximum load capacity of the garbage bin attached to the truck, so they know when to empty the truck’s garbage at the transfer station.
