The modern range, from RDS, enables wheeled or tracked vehicles to load correctly the first time, eradicating return trips to the stockpile and in turn reducing vehicle movements, fuel usage and machine and tyre wear.
The LoadMaster systems, supplied in Australia by AccuWeigh and sister company AccuOnboard, start from the basic, entry-level 800iX to the lift-speed-compensated, trade-approvable 9000i or colour touch screen Alpha 100.
Telemetry options allow fast and accurate transfer of weight data from loader to office. A variety of other standard and optional features enable the system to become a complete weighing solution for most quarries.
The range can be retrofitted to any wheeled or tracked loader and is said to offer a lower cost solution when compared to a weighbridge or weighing in-motion axle weigher.
