Air-Weigh develops scale for Heil Starr refuse vehicles

May 22, 2013

Onboard electronic scale manufacturer Air-Weigh has developed a new scale for use on the Heil Starr refuse and recycling vehicle.

The new scale is based on Air-Weigh’s LoadMaxx scale technology. It uses air pressure sensors to measure and calculate the tractor steer and drive axle weights, and patented deflection sensor technology on the trailer axle to measure the trailer weight.

Warning and overweight alarm outputs are also available from the scale.
