Responding to the lift truck industry's request for a simple and economical lift truck on-board check weighing system that can be used in any material handling operation and will operate in severe working environment; we have developed the ED2-Series SkidWeigh. The most popular application of this system is the freight weight verification of shipping pallets in the transportation industry. The transportation loading dock lift trucks equipped with the SkidWeigh will recoup the underestimated freight weight revenue that otherwise will slip through the system unnoticed. The ED-Series is the only on-board check weighing system that is found to be installed in multiple quantities within the same company.

Low installed cost Virtually maintenance free No operator training required Can be moved from one vehicle to another Will not reduce lift truck lift capacity Can be installed by a local lift truck service technician or the end user mechanic Resistant to industrial environments Field serviceable Wide range, check weighing capacity up to 50000 kg or lbs. Operating temperature ranging from -40°C to +85°C (-40 to +185° F) Accurate to +/- .5 to 1% of vehicle lift capacity

The ED2-Series will provide the operator's with the visual  tool indicating the current load weight status at any time.  This  vital  piece of the information  can  prevent  the vehicle tipping  and possible injuries to the lift truck operator and damages to the vehicle and goods being  handled.

In addition to the safety aspect, vehicle stability and avoidance of damages to the truck, stacking warehouse racks and shelving with allowed maximum load weight  becomes much easier.  The installed unit will  assure that the truck can do the work you need done, by eliminating the costly damages to the warehousing storage equipment.
