Parkerfarm's on-board fork lift truck weighing system is a simple to install system that turns a standard fork lift into a precision mobile weigher. It can be fitted on all fork lift trucks with FEM standard carriage plates. The forklfit weigher is an invaluable tool at busy farm warehouses and storage depots. As well as providing weight data on loaded pallets, it can also be used to ensure vehicles are correctly loaded and have an even weight distribution.
The weight is prominently displayed on a terminal mounted on the truck, which offers a wide range of weighing functions. These include multiple tare facility, parts counting and weight summation. The multiple tare function allows the operator to enter the weight of an empty pallet, the weight of an empty box or crate and the number of these on the pallet. The terminal then calculates the total tare weight and subtracts this from the gross weight to arrive at the net weight of product on the pallet.
For parts counting operations the system can store hundreds of coded average weight values and uses this information, together with the tare data, to calculate the number of pieces on a pallet. Operators can load pallets in a number of consecutive stages and display the weight for each stage by zero-setting the display after each weighment.
In addition, the terminal provides function keys for entering, programming and storing alphanumeric descriptions and display information including date and time, product and customer codes.
Options include a thermal printer and radio link to transmit data to a remote computer or terminal. To enhance performance, an electronic inclination control is available, which compensates for the inclination of the forks. A CE approved version of the instrument is also available for trade weighing applications. . Models for use with trucks equipped with tipping arrangements, fork spreaders, transfer units and pallet off-loaders complete the comprehensive range of options.
