Intelligent Positioning Solutions provider Aptella announces a new scale calibration service for civil, quarrying, mining and other heavy industries. With a fleet of trucks, the company will provide nationwide installations, servicing, and calibrations for on-board payload systems fitted to loaders, excavators, telehandlers, forklifts and other industrial machines.

On-board scales are used to accurately measure and record material moved in load and haul applications, as well as warehouse and logistics applications. They assist in reducing wasted material, optimising the loading of road and mining trucks, increasing safety and eliminating rework. Some systems are trade certified, enabling companies to transact on the measurements they provide.

“To ensure on-board scale systems are working accurately, it is important to have them serviced regularly,” said Josh Allan, Construction Business Manager at Aptella. “This is even more critical for trade-approved loader scales, where customers are transacting off the system’s measurements.”

With a fleet of new trucks across New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, and South Australia, Aptella has expanded its service capabilities to support customers nationwide by providing scales calibration services and installation.

As the exclusive Australian distributor for Topcon Positioning Systems, Aptella sells and supports the Topcon range of Loadmaster and Loadex scales, however the calibration service is available for most brands of weighing systems.

“Our experienced team is able to service most makes of on-board scales,” Mr Allan added. “The Queensland and Western Australia trucks are large enough to support mine-spec plant with all their scale servicing needs. In Queensland, we are also pleased to offer customers weighbridge calibrations and servicing.”
