hydraulic Forklift Weighing Systems

Forklift weighing systems, also known as in-motion weighing systems, are integrated weighing scales that allow operators to weigh loads as they are lifted and transported, eliminating the need for a separate weighing process. 

Do you want to weigh easily and cost-effectively on your lift truck?
With a hydraulic weighing system from Holi, you measure the weight of loads via the hydraulic pressure of the lift mast. This system is quick to install on both new and used forklifts and provides instant insight into the load weight without any additional handling.

Why choose a hydraulic weighing system?
This solution is ideal for check weighing, overload prevention and inventory management. Because the system does not require additional sensors in the forks, the forklift remains fully usable without structural modifications.

The hydraulic weighing system shows the weight directly on the in-cab display, allowing you to work efficiently without stops or extra moves.

Types:

    Forklift scales can be hydraulic, relying on the forklift’s hydraulic system, or utilize load cells directly on the forks or carriage.

    Function:

    These systems use load cells or weight sensors integrated into the forklift’s forks, carriage, or lifting mechanism to measure the weight of the load.

    Applications:

    These systems are widely used in industries such as:

    • Warehousing and logistics.
    • Shipping and receiving.
    • Inventory management.
    • Waste management.
    • Manufacturing.

    Maintenance:

    Regular maintenance is essential for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of forklift scales, and can extend their lifespan and prevent costly repairs.

    Benefits:

      • Increased Efficiency: They allow for the simultaneous weighing and handling of goods, saving time and labor.
      • Improved Accuracy: They provide precise weight measurements, which is crucial for inventory management, shipping, and receiving.
      • Enhanced Safety: They help ensure that loads are within the forklift’s weight capacity and conform to safety regulations, preventing overloading and potential accidents.
      • Optimized Loading: They enable operators to optimize load distribution, ensuring balanced and secure handling.
      • Data Collection: They can transfer weight data directly to business systems, WeightApps, and computer systems, streamlining operations.
