Track Scales – In Motion Weighing for the Rail Industry

Massize In-Motion Weighbridges provide automatic, high-speed operation and Trade Metrology grade accuracy. Various approved models are available, catering for speeds of up to 60km/hr. Our retrofit technology means that the weighbridge is built into the existing track and no rail cutting or sleeper replacement is required.

Massize systems produce the following fields for each weighed train:

• Date and time of Weighing
• Direction of travel
• Total train mass
• Total locomotive mass
• Total wagon mass

For each vehicle, the following fields are produced:

• Vehicle number in train
• Vehicle type (locomotive, wagon)
• Speed
• Vehicle identification number (from RFID tag)
• Vehicle mass
• Mass distribution (Left / Right and Front / Back)
• Individual axle masses
• Individual wheel masses

The other benefits of our systems include –

• Microprocessor based systems.
• The systems can be powered by either 240Vac, 24VDC, 12VDC or solar as an option.
• Easy to use Dynamass program allowing for visual reference, setup & configuration, troubleshooting and real time adjustment of alert triggers.
• Retrofit Technology.
• Alarming and instant email alerts.
• Remote access to the system via a cloud-based system (If required).
• Ability to store data on your server directly if needed or our server can be provided as an option.
• Ability to access the system remotely using a mobile network (3G/4G) to either adjust settings, configure impact alert levels or for troubleshooting and maintenance. We are also currently setting up the system to use of satellite communications for remote locations as well.
