weighing system for scrap metal container
`Onboard` - Load cells for heavy duty applications
Due to the different bulk density of scaped iron and aluminium it was nessecary to control the filling process of 6 container. The system is used to prevent overfilling and to calculate the commercial value of the content of each container. If the container is filled with a preselectable value ( 10 t ) the filling process is stopped and the container is picked up by the scrap merchant company. Because of the shock loads during lifting and dumping the container, it was not possible to use conventionell load cells. The robust weighing frame was bolted on 4 heavy duty load cells type T 33. This load cells are developed for `onboard` weihing on trucks. They are extremly resistant against overload and side forces. With a height of only 70 mm the T33 load cell are rated for 30.000 kg. The container weight is displayed on a `touchscreen`- PC. The PC stores the gross/ net weight of the container together with the name of the merchandising. The driver identifies his company via an individual `PIN` code.
