Bulk Material Handling

Equipment that handles bulk food materials, such as grain, cereals, sugar, feed or oil seeds, has to withstand harsh conditions. METTLER TOLEDO's filling, batching, tank and vehicle weighing solutions are designed to provide accurate weighing results to increase process efficiency and reduce bulk waste to the absolute minimum.

Equipment for the manufacturing of building material and mining facilities have to cope with temperature changes, including strong wind and thunderstorms. Weighing equipment from METTLER TOLEDO allows expansion and contraction of support structures to ensure accurate weighing regardless of weather conditions. POWERMOUNT® load cells withstand lightning and submersion in water.

Equipment weighing in waste-handling facilities, and especially in steel-recycling melting, has to withstand heat, shock loading and overload situations. Vibrations generated by material handling from cranes and shredders are very common. Sophisticated filter technology inside weighing terminals and transmitters ensure stable and reliable weight results.

Gravimetric level control is ideal for aggressive, hot, frozen, non-free-flowing or non-self-leveling materials because load cells are outside of the tank. Measuring results are not impacted by tank shape, temperature or material viscosity. Our weigh modules with POWERCELL® technology reduce downtime with predictive maintenance. The CalFreePlus™ feature eliminates need for re-calibration in the event the cables or load cells have to be replaced.

Truck weighing is often integral to a company's throughput and profit stream. METTLER TOLEDO truck scales provide leading reliability and accuracy for any application, from standard duty to extreme. Rugged designs provide a long service life, while smart control systems, interface options, and peripherals offer advantages to your business operations. As a global leader in measurement, METTLER TOLEDO has solved many of the shortcomings seen in conventional scales through unique innovations.

METTLER TOLEDO rail scales offer rugged designs for durability in numerous configurations, combined with advanced POWERCELL® weighing technology for lasting reliability and high accuracy. Rail scale systems are available for static weighing, and for weighing rail cars that are coupled together and in-motion. Coupled-in-motion (CIM) rail weighing provides the ability to weigh multiple rail cars and entire trains in a fraction of the time.
