We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Weighbridge",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Silos expand lime storage from
Portasilo, which we summarised at the time by saying "Portasilo has recently supplied Buxton Lime Industries with a significant extension to its lime storage facilities at Hindlow quarries in the Peak District".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Amplifier speeds weighing system calibration from
Sensor Techniques: "An industrial digital weight amplifier provides a simple and easy method for calibrating industrial weighing systems, without the need for calibration weights or flow meters".
In May 2006, we covered the news from Weightron Bilanciai
concerning its CPD digital load cells
- take a look at Digital cells futureproof weighbridge installation
which says: "Digital load cells are used in a 50 tonne Eurodeck pit-mounted weighbridge recently supplied to leading tyre processor Sapphire Energy Recovery".
Take a look also at the news release from Weightron Bilanciai, Digital load cell upgrades weighbridges,
as well as Software adapts weighbridges for axle duties from Weightron Bilanciai,
and Weighbridge manufacturing plant opens from Weightron Bilanciai.
