Dr Air-Brake adds value with Trail-Weigh
Dr Air-Brake says its Trail-Weigh product is setting a new standard in onboard weighing technology, offering drivers real-time insights into their vehicle’s load weight.
By eliminating the need for time-consuming trips to weighbridges, Trail-Weigh empowers drivers to operate more efficiently and safely while ensuring compliance with weight regulations, the company says.
“Trail-Weigh operates by precisely measuring air pressure from the suspension system,” said Dr Air-Brake.
“These measurements detect weight fluctuations, enabling accurate calculations of the load added or removed from the vehicle. This innovative approach ensures that drivers have immediate access to critical load weight data at all times.”
Trail-Weigh provides accurate load weight information, says the company, significantly reducing the risk of exceeding legal weight limits and avoiding fines or penalties.
Reduced vehicle wear and tear is said to be a further benefit of the system.
“By monitoring load weight precisely, the system helps prevent damage to the vehicle, prolonging its life and minimising costly repairs,” said the firm.
“Real-time data empowers drivers to optimise loading operations, saving valuable time and increasing productivity.”
Regulatory compliance is also simplified, Dr Air-Brake contends.
“Accurate load weight management decreases the likelihood of DVSA inspections, ensuring smoother operations and compliance with legal standards,” it said.
“With Trail-Weigh, drivers can bypass weighbridge queues, streamlining their workflow and reducing downtime.
“Trail-Weigh is a game-changer for fleets and individual operators looking to enhance safety, efficiency, and compliance.”
