Haenni shows lightweight solution for low-speed WIM

The WL400 is a new portable low-speed weigh-in-motion (WIM) wheel load strip sensor which is making its first appearance at Haenni’s stand in hall 10. Designed for pre-selection of vehicles, the 80mm wide sensor has an accuracy of ±2% (excluding external factors) at speeds of up to 20km/h and a capacity of 30tonnes per axle.

The WL400 is a new portable low-speed weigh-in-motion (WIM) wheel load strip sensor which is making its first appearance at 8707 Haenni’s stand in hall 10. Designed for pre-selection of vehicles, the 80mm wide sensor has an accuracy of ±2% (excluding external factors) at speeds of up to 20km/h and a capacity of 30tonnes per axle.


The complete system weighs only 80kg and comprises of two sensors, a position frame and four levelling mats – effectively removing the need for a fixed installation although the sensor can be installed in the road for permanent locations such as tolling and freight management applications.  All areas of the 1.25m long sensor can withstand being run over as it does not include the readout because the results are conveyed to a PC via a rugged cable.

    Cisco’s low-cost fibre optic solution for traffic monitoring
    Cisco’s display focuses on a novel way of detecting traffic speeds, congestion and incidents without the use of loops. The company is using a fibre optic cable positioned alongside the road and down which it shines a light. Vibration created by passing vehicles create vibration which disrupts the passage of the light. Cisco has developed algorithms that can translate these disruptions to determine what type of vehicle is passing, in which direction, the lane it is using and the speed it is travelling. The

    Bounce back with Berry’s spring steel buffer
    Oops! Another small knock to your car in the car park. But thanks to the new spring steel buffer from Berry, it is the barrier that yields this time and not your vehicle’s bodywork. A key feature of the buffer is its deflection – typically around 300mm, according to Berry, part of the Hill & Smith group. This means that impact forces are absorbed by the buffers rather than transmitted directly to the mounting bolts or towards deformation of the railing system. They usually require one or two 20mm bolts.

    CAMEA WIM is type approved and turnkey for weigh-in-motion
    CAMEA WIM, developed and manufactured by CAMEA image and signal processing, is a turnkey solution for weigh-in-motion applications, from traffic reports to enforcement. According to CAMEA, the high speed system allows vehicles thought to be overloaded to be pre-selected and directed to a precise weigh station without impact on traffic flow. The CAMEA WIM – type approved for weight enforcement in the Czech Republic – also provides rich sets of traffic data in database format for export in standard formats.
