Wireless scale tracks weight from forklift

Lifting, weighing, transfer, and data collection functions are combined in a scale designed for installation on forklift trucks. The NTEP-certified Alliance Rice Lake CLS-420 Fork Lift Scale from Alliance Scale Inc. (Canton, MA) has a capacity of 5000 lb, features an onboard weigh indicator with 1-MB memory, and uses wireless communications to provide data to a central computer system in real time. Capable of data logging and storing up to 10,000 records, the CLS-420’s real-time data transmission includes accurate shipment identifiers and weight-related data such as PRO number, employee ID, last transaction data, and estimated and actual weight and skids. The lithium-ion smart battery operates 24 hours continuous and recharges fully in 8 hours. The scale is priced from $6500-$8500 depending on instrumentation. —[email protected]
