AccuWeigh recently serviced a transfer tunnel weighbridge for a prominent waste transfer station in Brisbane, Queensland. A transfer tunnel weighbridge is one mounted in a tunnel below the ground level of the main refuse disposal area. A typical end loader is used to push waste from the main refuse area into a waiting truck on the weighbridge below.

Sometimes not all the waste falls in to the waiting truck and the build-up of refuse around the weighbridge over time requires clean-outs and wash-downs. The environment of a transfer tunnel weighbridge is very harsh and demanding and it’s inevitable that the weighbridge will require servicing from time to time.

Our service staff are fully trained and very experienced with servicing weighing systems in demanding environments, and as such can perform robust servicing to ensure robust weighing systems continue to operate and remain accurate under all conditions.
