Utility Truck Scales Description
Utility operations must ensure their industrial trucks comply with weight restrictions set by the Department of Transportation. Improperly loaded vehicles, or those that exceed the weight rating, have a dramatic effect on steering, maneuverability, acceleration and overall safety. Weight and balance procedures ensure that work trucks going into the field are safe for the operator and for the communities they serve.
At Intercomp, we manufacture accurate weighing and measurement solutions for Utility Trucks. If you have specific questions regarding our Portable, In-Ground, or WIM scale options
contact us for more information.
