Crane scales for precise weighing in chassis
In retrofit applications where space constraints are common, determining the most accurate and reliable weighing solution for ladle transfer cranes is critical. This situation often involves balancing precision and ease of maintenance under challenging conditions.

Ensure accurate weighing with minimal space requirements
The crane scales by Schenck Process offer an innovative solution for weighing in the chassis of ladle transfer cranes. Designed with an extremely low installation height, these scales can be retrofitted in even the tightest spaces. The system integrates weighing units seamlessly between the crane frame and chassis, enabling precise measurement of ladle weight and transfer of any motion forces. The use of SENSiQ WB weighbeams ensures up to +/- 0.1% accuracy of the weighing range limit value. These highly reliable units are permanently screwed down, containing no moving parts that require adjustment, which drastically reduces maintenance needs. Additionally, their compact modular design provides excellent protection from radiant heat, enhancing their durability and performance.
Benefits
- Low installation height for easy retrofitting
- High precision with +/- 0.1% accuracy
- Minimal maintenance with no moving parts
- Reliable operation with firm screw-down installation
