Why do your operations require an Ultrahawke weighbridge?

Maximise Payloads

By having complete control over your payload, your operations can benefit by precisely knowing the weight and axle weight distribution, leading to optimising your payloads and profitability.

Avoid Overloading Fines

A weighbridge will provide you highly accurate weight measurements, allowing you to never overload your vehicle, preventing costly fines and enhancing road safety.

Reduce WHS Risks

Ensure your vehicles aren’t overloaded and protect your HGV operators in the process. Weighbridges are an integral component of any transport and logistics risk management system.

Meet CoR Requirements

Chain of Responsibility is everyone’s business. Ensure your supply chains are protected by the reassurances provided by a weighbridge.

Efficiencies and Effectiveness

Increase your operational efficiencies and effectiveness by having greater control and optimisation potential over your operations.

Types of Weighbridges

Pit Weighbridges

Pit weighbridges are designed for use in narrow spaces as they eliminate the need for the 1 meter clearance along both sides that is required for the maintenance and cleaning of above ground weighbridges. However, it’s important to keep in mind that, as the weighing surface of a pit weighbridge is flush with ground level, construction of pit weighbridges requires excavation work, effective drainage, and more concrete reinforcing. Unlike imported products, Diverseco manufactures superior quality, Australian made pit weighbridges that are custom built to meet our customer’s requirements.

Above-Ground Weighbridges

Relatively cost-effective and easier to install, above ground weighbridges (aka. surface mounted) are the most commonly installed type of weighbridge that we design, manufacture and install. Well-suited to temporary sites or where portability is a pre-requisite, above ground weighbridges require minimal foundation work and the least amount of site preparation prior to construction. They are perfect for weighing rigid trucks and semi-trailers with deck lengths from 9 meter to 20 meter.

Portable Weighbridges

Portable weighbridges, more commonly known as low-profile axle weighers (LPAX) are installed as a standalone unit up to 65mm above ground, or in a 65mm shallow recess; weighing occurs on two 3.6m long tracks that enable the weight of each axle group to be captured efficiently. Because they sit almost flush with the ground, LPAX weighers provide highly accurate readings and are designed to be used on a flat concrete hardstand or on an area when the land has been suitably compacted. Therefore, they require minimal siteworks and site disruption for installation and use. The LPAX weighs about 1.25 tonnes per wheel track and can be moved with just a forklift. For this reason, their portability is one of their major drawcards.
