We provided our 60,000 BPH scale, which even with 10′ of additional Upper Garner space has a height of only 43′-4″.

The customer required several upgrades to our standard system including:

  • 8″ structural columns to handle Hi-Roller conveyor
  • 30″ wide platforms instead of 24″
  • All cones are ¼” plate for longer life.

To reduce installation time the ladders and platforms were designed to be bolted together in the field rather than the being welded.

The scale is controlled by the state of the art GMS-4000 controller including:

  • SmartTech that automatically monitors the scale for correct operation
  • SmartLoad that ensures that the scale continues to run while a new car is positioned under the spout, and
  • SmartRead that automatically reads the rail cars and calculates the optimum amount to load into each car.
