Pit scales for industrial weighing
Optimize material flow and ensure precise load determination with a robust pit scale solution designed for seamless integration into high-speed, continuous operations.

Determines Accurate Load and Manages Material Flow
The Weighbridge DFT-E Pit Scale System from Qlar redefines efficiency and precision in load determination for industrial applications. What sets this equipment apart is its integration of robust load cells within a preassembled, high-quality precast concrete structure, ensuring longevity and stability. Ideally suited for industries such as chemicals, cement, and logistics, it facilitates accurate weighing of transport vehicles and shipping containers, supporting materials like ammonium nitrate, steel coils, and recyclable plastics.
Operating seamlessly within automated processes, the system employs evaluation electronics and software solutions like DISOMAT® Opus and ZEUS for enhanced functionality and material flow management. Its compact design allows for easy installation, minimizing downtime and labor costs. The scales can handle both continuous and high-speed operations, traversing vehicles lengthwise and crosswise, which maximizes operational flexibility. With compliance for initial verification across Europe, the Weighbridge DFT-E is an indispensable tool for reliable, legal-for-trade measurements and streamlined logistics management.
