Determine your customer's general requirements for lift truck on-board check weighing

If the weight readout accuracy of +/- .5% to 1% of the maximum load capacity of the fork lift truck is allowed for that particular operation; then SkidWeigh is the solution to your customer's needs

What you need to know about forklift on-board weighing / overload warning systems

Selecting The Right System:

There is a variety of on-board scales and check weighing systems available on the market offering an array of options for companies seeking solutions to their material handling productivity problems. We will provide a guide to two of the most prominent operating concepts, load cell and hydraulic pressure weighing systems.

The most important is to find what the customer really needs. While most clients have a good idea of what they want, they may sometimes have unrealistic expectations of their material handling suppliers.
Find out more about your customer's lift truck operating environment. This is the most important information that will make a difference between real world workable solution or failure.
Does your customer utilize two different forks attachments during the normal operation? If this might be a case than you will need the system with two weighing channels capability.
Because orders received in lower quantities are shipped out within 24 hours, there is no need to stock them.
Everyone can sale you a forklift scale. Not everyone will sale you a right scale to match your customer needs, operational environment or right application.
Will the vehicle be driven only inside the plant or will the vehicle be driven outside as well. For example, in a typical transportation loading dock facility, there is a lot of dust and the vehicle is constantly moving in and out of the trailers. In some operational environments, the vehicle might be going back and forth from the freezer to the loading dock, which would indicate that water and humidity are present.

Knowing this type of information in advance will influence our decision as to which type of on-board system and accessories should be recommend for that particular customer.

Things To Consider Before Purchasing On-board Scale! :

Find out more about the working concept for lift truck on-board scale or check weighing system

Learn more about degree of difficulty to install the system into the vehicle
Can installation / calibration be done by local lift truck technician or must be done by the supplier
What technical specification and data from lift truck dealer is required to specify right unit, important
Will on-board weighing system work with a specific lift truck attachments
Will on-board weighing system work in wet, dusty environment or freezer
Total cost, including the installation costs
Find out the location for the system installation ( Dealer, Customer or Scale Supplier )
Calibrating procedures
Safety of the installed components (Example: Leaf chain load cells installation procedures)
Check weighing accuracy in relationship to vehicle lifting capacity
Are there any loses of the vehicle lifting capacity, important in high reach working facilities
Warranty
Return policy, re-stocking charges
Total weight of the weighing system and it's components
Shipping costs: Important since some system will weigh a several hundreds of pounds
Serviceability after sale
Delivery times
Purchasing terms
All of the above should be investigated before making the final decision on the appropriate on-board scale or check weighing system.

Why SkidWeigh System?

It all adds up to the best R.O.I. for you customer :

Our products are designed on the working concept based on the hydraulic pressure transducer installed in lift circuit of the vehicle. As of example, the ED2-Series line consists only of two components, digital indicator and pressure transducer. There is no operator input, no buttons to press. System can be installed on any material handling vehicle ( No hand pallet trucks or electric low lift ), regardless of the power supply, for lifting capacity up to 50,000 pounds or kilograms.
All of the SkidWeigh models are designed as a "On-board Check Weighing Systems".
The development of the software / hardware for SkidWeigh product line was made with the Lift Truck Dealer in mind. The goal is to keep it simple, make it fully automatic, obtain the best weighing accuracy possible, easy to install and calibrate and make sure that works for long time. Our marketing strategy is to supply our products directly to the Lift Truck Dealers. Our success is the repeatable customer base that keeps coming back to purchase additional units once the first installed unit has been proven in the real world operational environment.
The ED2-Series SkidWeigh is the only forklift on-board check weighing system that is found to be installed in multiple quantities within the same company.
We do not make any claims, we do not make any comparisons, just facts.
Should your customer application be out of the ordinary or our product line is not suitable, we will not sale it to you.

These innovative products (Patented Technology,Wordwide) are economically priced, backed with a two year warranty and are simple to install by the qualified lift truck technician.
Our return policy is as follows:
Full credit if returned within 30 days and unit is not damaged
Between 31 and 90 days of purchase, credit note for full amount less 25% restocking fee to be used against future purchase, if unit is not damaged
No credit after 90 days
There is no need for the in house "Scale Technician Expertise" or outside service installation personal in order to install and calibrate the SkidWeigh systems.
Because orders received in lower quantities are shipped out within 24 hours, there is no need to stock them.
Our current Lift Truck Dealer pricing structure with suggested end user pricing is supplied to Lift Truck Dealers.
The end user sales and installation price is determined by the individual Lift Truck Dealer.
