Forklift Scales Save Time and Money Forklift Scales to Count On Forklift scales make weighing a one-step process. Designed for use in tough freight and less-than-truckload environments, The TLF820 sets the standard for accuracy, safety and reliability.  www.mt.com/TLF820 2

Typical challenges in Freight and LTL... Operations manager “Too often, there just isn’t enough time to stop and measure everything. We need a solution that fits seamlessly into operations and minimizes any extra effort.“ Faster pallet handling Revenue recovery manager “When we don’t manage to weigh or measure a pallet, either because of time constraints or technical limitations, we lose the opportunity for revenue recovery. This can have a direct impact on our bottom line.“ Maintenance manager “Forklift scales require frequent tolerence checks and adjustments. They also need regular...

Pallet Handling Efficiency Faster Pallet Handling 4 Simple Steps With a seamlessly integrated solution, efficiency is kept at a premium. Reduce the number of steps required to capture pallet data for costing, revenue recovery and load planning. Virtual weighing terminal The terminal is embedded in the scale, meaning no extra hardware mounted in the truck. The terminal is potected by a solid metal casing. Driver scans ID from picking list Control processes from inside the truck With an onboard Smart PC, there is no need to get off the truck to receive instructions or scan the barcode. The...

Smart PC The entire weighing and measuring process can be run via a SmartPC that provides stepby-step operator guidance and merges and stores all data. Dimensions, weight and ID are seamlessly merged Seamless data merge and transfer Weight data from the scale is merged with barcode and dimensional data, then transfered wirelessly in one simple data string to the host. No extra time is needed to record or send data. Data is transferred automatically to server Data for routing and re-classification optimization Once data is captured, the forklift driver can move on to the outbound. Data can...

Top Weighing Results In Tough Conditions In industrial environments, there is a lot that can affect on-board weighing performance. The unique design of our forklift scales maintains legal-for-trade accuracy in demanding conditions, where other scales struggle. Weigh at any height Sometimes fork height becomes uneven as a result of wear-and-tear. The angular compensation feature of our scales maintains accuracy, regardless of the height and level of the two forks. No careful positioning The corner adjustment function means that shipments can be accurately weighed, regardless of how goods are...

See for yourself Watch forklift scales in action at a leading North American freight carrier. www.mt.com/forklift-scales Protected accuracy Patented split flexures increase weighing accuracy by stabalizing the load more effectively. A solid steel front plate protects the load cells and electronics from damage that routinely puts other forklift scales out of commission. Unique 3-point suspension Many scales require frequent adjustment to maintain accuracy in heavy-use environments. Our forklift scales hold calibration for up-to 12 months and require very little service or maintenance. NTEP...

Low-Cost Maintenance Cut Maintenance in Half Slash Costs, Reduce Downtime When investing in a forklift scale, it is important to consider not only the initial purchase price, but also reliability and maintenance that will impact your business for years to come. Our scales are low-maintenance and designed to live a long life in the toughest conditions.  www.mt.com/TLF820 8

No need for frequent recalibration A typical forklift scale requires recablibration two or three times per year. The 3-point suspension of our scales keeps them in calibration for up to 12 months. If you have a fleet of forklift trucks, all equipped with scales, the costs of frequent calibration can really add up. Keep working when others break down Our scales are constructed of solid steel and designed to withstand years of heavy use. Robust design and little required maintenace ensures uptime when other scales break down. Survive the toughest conditions To ensure our scales are...

Reduce Risk of Accident Designed for Safety Safety is paramount in fast-paced freight-handling environments. Our forklift scales are designed with operator safety as a priority. Features that ensure operators are always in control help to avoid accidents and maintain productivity. Keep operators off the floor With no need for the operator to get out of the truck to process paperwork or use a dimensioner, the risk of accidents is significantly reduced. High operator visibility A large visibility window and plexiglass protection plates allows safe positioning, loading and transportation of...

No extra hardware The weighing terminal is embedded and protected by a heavyduty metal cover. This means that you do not have to mount extra hardware in the truck that may obscure a driver’s view. System protection The robust design protects internal components from knocks, bumps and even crashes. If the forks tilt too far to safely weigh, the operator is alerted to the problem. Did you know? There are 34,900 forklift accidents resulting in serious injury every year in the US alone. Take precautions to improve safety in freight handling environments.
