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. These successful tests coincide with the 40 year anniversary of the establishment of the Intercomp. Intercomp’s strain gauge strip sensors are grouted into 3 inch (75mm) channels cut into the ro

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.

    Cross Zlin’s optical sensors increase options for WIM
    Having won the 2016 Intertraffic Innovation Award, Cross Zlin is back again with a host of new products including a shortlisted fibre-optic based weigh-in-motion system called OptiWim. Marketing manager Libor Sušil describes the system as weigh-in-free-flow as it measures the axle across the full lane width regardless of the position of the wheels and the sensor can also detect underinflated tyres even on twin wheel configurations. He likens the measuring method to that of a strain gauge but adds that th
