Intercomp celebrates milestones at Intertraffic 2018

Multiple milestones for Intercomp and its products will be celebrated at Intertraffic. The company’s in-ground strain gauge strip sensors, used in low and high-speed WIM (HSWIM), and its LSWIM axle scale have each successfully passed OIML initial verification testing, with the OIML R134 certificates in process.

Multiple milestones for 1982 Intercomp and its products are being celebrated at Intertraffic. The company’s in-ground strain gauge strip sensors, used in low and high-speed WIM (HSWIM), and its LSWIM axle scale have each successfully passed OIML initial verification testing, with the OIML R134 certificates in process. These successful tests coincide with the 40-year anniversary of the establishment of Intercomp.  


Intercomp’s strain gauge strip sensors are grouted into 3 inch (75mm) channels cut into the road, with configurations of these sensors used in data collection, screening and direct enforcement, tolling (ETC), and industrial applications.

The LSWIM axle scales have a frame installed into the pavement, and provide highly accurate weights for enforcement and industrial applications at lower speeds.

For 40 years now, US-headquartered Intercomp has been serving the weighing and measuring industry. The company says it is the world’s largest manufacturer of portable weighing and measurement products, with customers in aerospace, transportation, automotive, and numerous other industries who recognise that Intercomp’s products provide reliable solutions for the most exacting applications.

    Visitors to the Peter Berghaus stand will see the result of continued development with the company’s ProTec family, resulting in its mobile crash barrier becoming a system. Initially, Berghaus focused on developing and using mobile crash barriers made of steel. This was followed soon after by a clever combination of steel and concrete, resulting in the first ProTec crash barrier to be successfully tested to the European standard DIN EN13172.

    May 25, 2016
    Q-Free’s Andrew Lees looks at regional characteristics and technology trends in the global Weigh-In-Motion market. The principles of Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) are well established. Data derived from vehicles passing over in-ground sensors can be interpreted for vehicle classification (axle counts and spacing) and positive identification (especially when linked to image capture) applications as well as to derive individual axle and gross vehicle weight (GVW).

    March 21, 2018
    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
