Freight Terminal Scales Description
Semi-truck freight weighing scales provide accurate vehicle weight measurements at entry points, exit points, and other common weighing areas within a facility. Freight truck scales provide increased loading and offloading efficiency, eliminating entry point and exit point bottlenecks by replacing large, in-ground, stationary static scales and integrating weight information into existing vehicle transactions.
At Intercomp, we manufacture Portable, In-Ground, and Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) based semi-truck freight weighing scales that are reliable, efficient, and easy to operate. If you have specific questions regarding our Portable, In-Ground, WIM scale options
get in touch with us for more information and we will gladly answer any questions you have regarding your specific freight scale requirements.
Semi-Truck Freight Scale Advantages
When it comes to freight commerce efficiency,
Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) from Intercomp provide many beneficial qualities for use at Freight Terminals. Our digital semi-truck freight weighing scales are built to provide accurate weight results and efficiencies that make pickups and deliveries simple and cost-effective. Additional semi-truck freight scale advantages include:
- Weigh-In-Motion - Allows traffic to keep moving, which expedites the weighing process.
- Inventory Monitoring & Management – Terminal and WIM Scales provide accurate weight results for semi-trucks entering and exiting a facility, allowing for increased inventory monitoring and management capabilities.
- Cost Savings – By providing accurate weights at both entry and exit points, Freight Truck Scales calculate product weight received or unloaded.

When compared with in-ground traditional static scales, our Portable WIM Freight Terminal Scales have a lower upfront cost of ownership and lower operational costs.
- System includes two scales, roll-up ramps and indicator
- Portable WIM Scales can operate in dynamic or static mode
- Deployable in less than 15 minutes
- Capture individual axle and total vehicle weight
- 2-3% dynamic accuracy, ±0.5% static accuracy
- Push-button conversion to static mode
- RFX® Wireless Weighing with cable backup
- 60,000 lb (30,000 kg) individual axle capacity

LS-WIM® Weigh-In-Motion Freight Terminal Scales
Intercomp’s in-ground WIM systems track and display individual axle weights in addition to gross vehicle weight (GVW). With a full-length truck scale, this data is hard to collect. Since the truck doesn’t have to come to a complete stop for accurate weighing, traffic is able to keep moving increasing efficiency and decreasing costs. The smaller weighbridge of the WIM system also requires less effort and time to install and maintain when compared to full-length, static truck scales.
Capture vehicle weight dynamically at a permanent facility:
- Small installation and operational footprint compared to full-length truck scale
- 1-2% dynamic accuracy at low speeds
- Static Accuracy ±0.1%
- Available as components or can operate as standalone system
- Integration into existing gate systems, if applicable
- Capture individual axle and total vehicle weights
- Available in capacities up to 100,000 lb (45,000 kg)
