Intercomp offers accurate high speed weigh in motion technology

Intercomp is now offering improved high speed, weigh in motion technology. Intercomp’s Eric Peterson vice president said: “The conventional application is that it’s used for screening. What makes it new is that it relies on strain gauge technology. We’ve downsized it.” He added that strain gauge measurement technology offers a greater degree of accuracy than conventional systems.

Intercomp’s accurate new weigh in motion strain gauge system offers high performance
1982 Intercomp is now offering improved high speed, weigh in motion technology. Intercomp’s Eric Peterson vice president said: “The conventional application is that it’s used for screening. What makes it new is that it relies on strain gauge technology. We’ve downsized it.” He added that strain gauge measurement technology offers a greater degree of accuracy than conventional systems.

The strip weighing scales are fitted into 75mm grooves in the roadway and offer a cost-effective alternative to other systems due to the short installation time required and low maintenance needs. These load cell products offer high accuracy and repeatability, as well as fast response times.

    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).
