What Are the Benefits of Using Air Suspension Weighing Systems?

What are the benefits of air suspension weighing systems? AirRide Scale delivers compliance, efficiency, real-time visibility and payload control for air bag trucks and trailers.

An air suspension weighing system uses your air bag suspension to weigh the vehicle, then puts that information where you can act on it. The benefits go well beyond avoiding a fine. With AirRide Scale, air bag trucks and trailers gain compliance, efficiency, real time visibility and tighter payload control, all from a cost effective, wireless scale.

Improve compliance

Stay legal and road worthy with accurate onboard axle group weighing. Knowing your steer, drive and trailer group weights before you roll means you never gamble at a weigh station, and you have records to prove it.

Optimise payloads

Underloading wastes money on every trip. With live weights, you can load right up to the legal limit with confidence, maximising payload capacity while avoiding overloading penalties. Over many loads, that is significant extra revenue from the same fleet.

Real time visibility

See live weights while you drive and get instant insight for better decisions. Drivers, dispatchers and fleet managers all work from the same real time picture, and the optional Loadsense cloud portal extends that visibility across the whole fleet.

Lower operating costs

Reducing fines, avoiding downtime, balancing loads to protect tyres and suspension, and removing weighbridge detours all add up. An air suspension weighing system pays for itself through fewer penalties and better fleet efficiency.

Works on air bag suspension only. AirRide Scale reads load through the air springs, so it fits trucks and trailers running air bag (air) suspension on each axle group you want to weigh. Steel, leaf and mechanical spring axle groups are not supported. If your steer, drive and trailer groups ride on air, you are ready for AirRide Scale.

Easy retrofit

AirRide Scale is quick to install and built to integrate with your existing air bag fleet. Wireless RF sensors, one Air Link, and your phone as the display keep it simple for operators across the USA, Canada and Europe, from the UK and Ireland to Germany, Poland, Spain and the Nordics.

The payoff

Compliance, efficiency, visibility and payload control in one affordable package. That is why air suspension weighing systems are becoming standard equipment for serious operators.
