Truck Weight, manufacturer of Smart Scale on-board scales for air-ride and mechanical suspensions, introduced a new wireless sensor for mechanical suspension systems. Without requiring modifications, the new sensors can be installed on tandem spring, single point, camelback, walking beam, and Chalmers suspension systems.
According to Truck Weight, the new sensors cost roughly 75 percent less than traditional, hardwired onboard scale load-cell systems, while installation time takes about one to two hours. The sensors, when used with Truck Weight’s Smart Scale onboard scales, have been tested to be accurate within a range of one to two percent.
