Requirement

Milano Bilance, a company based in Mazzo di Rho (Milan) specializing in the sale, support and manteinance of weighing systems, has to build a weighing platform that can be used both on the ground and as a forkable base to be transported with a forklift truck as an alternative to weighing forks.

The forkable platform must permit the operator not only to transport the material, but also to monitor its weight while sitting in the driver's cab and to print out the measured data directly.

Our solution

• 4 shear beam load cells FTP 500
• 1 junction box CE41INOX
• 1 weight transmitter Wi-Fi TLKWF
• 1 weight indicator WTAB-R with Wi-Fi receiver option and integrated thermal printer

How does it work?

The added value

• The combination of a forkable base and a weighing platform provides a double use for the operator: as a normal platform on the ground and as a transportable platform.
  
  
• The Wi-Fi weight transmitter transfers the signal to the indicator installed on the forklift truck, with no need for a cable connection.
  
  
• The thermal printer integrated in the WTAB indicator allows the operator to choose whether to store the data or to affix a label with the weight data directly on the pallet.
  
  
• The CE41INOX junction box with an equalization board allows the load cells to be connected in parallel and corrects the weight value on the corners to ensure perfect weighing at any point on the platform.
  
  
• The FTP shear beam load cells are ideal for making a weighing platform thanks to their limited height and excellent price-quality ratio.
