Tartan wagon scales are industrial weighing solutions for railway wagons and rail-side bulk loading. Experience that started with timber-deck vehicle scales continues with the mobile, multi-platform systems we launched in 2003. Our first mobile reference—10 load cells across eight platforms at Manisa Kudret Brick—still operates reliably; the same engineering discipline shapes our wagon-scale projects.
What is a wagon weighbridge?
A wagon weighbridge provides reliable gross/net weighing of railway wagons, integrated with or alongside the track. Tartan wagon platforms are manufactured entirely from steel with current weighing technology. Standard size thinking covers 3 m × 8 m / 9 m / 14 m / 16 m / 18 m / 20 m / 21 m / 22 m / 24 m with capacities from 40 t to 150 t. Custom dimensions follow track geometry, wagon type and operating scenario.
Installation, maintenance and civil works
Approaches can include steel ramps or track interface details. Deck heights of 24 cm, 27 cm and 30 cm adapt to the site. Platforms suit above-ground or flush mounting. Service covers speed load-cell maintenance. Easy dismantling and reassembly lowers civil-works cost and supports relocation during track revisions.
Steel-deck wagon scales for rail logistics
40–150 t capacity with flexible sizes
24 / 27 / 30 cm platform heights
Above-ground or flush mounting
Load-cell service covers
Lower civil cost, fast reinstallation
Load-cell infrastructure
Compression load cells (30–50 t each) perform electronic weighing. Systems use 4 or 10 load cells depending on capacity and platform size—suited to ports, terminals, mining, steel and bulk-cargo operations.
