Off-Road Weighbridges (Mining & Quarrying)
Clover Scales offers off-road weighbridges specifically built to handle the extreme demands of mining, quarrying, and off-highway haulage. These weighbridges are engineered with exceptional structural strength to support concentrated axle loads, making them ideal for articulated dump trucks, loaders, and other heavy-duty off-road vehicles.What sets our solution apart is its tailor-made approach; every off-road weighbridge is designed according to client and site-specific requirements. We collaborate closely with your team to assess vehicle types, axle configurations, site access, and load profiles, ensuring a fit-for-purpose design that delivers accuracy and long-term durability in the most challenging environments.
Built to Withstand, Built to Adapt
The deck structure is fabricated from U-shaped steel beams, delivering rigidity and superior load-bearing strength at critical stress points. This robust construction ensures the weighbridge maintains performance under repeated extreme loading cycles, such as those from vehicles like the CAT 740 and CAT 777.
Key features include:
- Custom platform sizing based on your vehicle and operational needs
- High-capacity axle load tolerance
- Modular platform design for ease of transport, assembly, and relocation
- Smooth 14mm deck plate construction with a total deck height of 385mm
- All cables routed in protective conduit to load cells and junction boxes
- Integrated weigh-bars joining each deck module for structural continuity
- Optional side rail installation tailored to site layout and safety requirements
Each off-road weighbridge typically consists of two separate scale platforms, each measuring 8m x 3m. One full installation includes four modular deck sections per scale and three weigh-bars, enabling the system to capture massive vehicle weights with consistent precision.
Site-Specific Design for Harsh Environments
Our off-road weighbridges are not off-the-shelf products; they’re custom-engineered solutions. We begin by analysing your vehicle specs, including length, width, and maximum axle load. From there, we create a weighbridge layout and structural configuration that fits your site’s terrain, space, and access requirements.The result: a durable, relocatable, and highly accurate weighing solution built for the realities of mining and quarrying operations.
