Heavy Capacity Platform Scales

25/06/2008 - Ultrahawke recently supplied a set of heavy capacity platform scales to GB Galvanizing at Dandenong for weighing metal beams up to 24m long and 5,000 kg weight. These heavy capacity platform scales are used to weigh metalwork before and after the galvanising process to ensure the client is being fully charged for the actual amount of zinc used rather than charging for estimated surface area.

Ultrahawk’s heavy capacity platform scales are trade approved and measure 6m long by 2.4m wide with a capacity of 8,000kg. Four Kelba KA5000 loadcells are used in these heavy capacity platform scales which feature a “Floating Deck” platform design to minimise potential loadcell damage caused by accidental side forces applied to the weighing surface of the platform scales.

A Rinstrum R5000 digital weight indicator is used to generate the weight readings which are then transmitted to a Rinstrum D740 large digit remote display to ensue both the forklift and crane operators can easily see the displayed weight of the platform scales.

GB Galvanizing offers two of the most modern galvanizing facilities in Australia located at Bayswater and Dandenong in Victoria and operating 24 hours a day catering for all general and structural steel. Together with a dedicated workforce of over 140 employees and a fleet of 10 semi trailers, GB Galvanizing services both local and interstate customers with ease.

Ultrahawke is Australia’s oldest manufacturer of weighbridges and heavy capacity scales and recently celebrated 150 years of operation. Ultrahawke has sales and service agents in all states of Australia.
