Weighbridges are essential to Gujarat’s industrial infrastructure, especially in sectors like logistics, cement, construction, and agriculture. Whether you're transporting goods across states or weighing raw materials on-site, weighbridges help ensure accurate billing, regulatory compliance, and logistics efficiency.

At Shree Shree Weighing Solutions, we offer manufacturing, installation, repair, and pan-India stamping services for all types of weighbridges.

🛠️ What is a Weighbridge?

A weighbridge (truck scale) is a large platform scale that weighs trucks and heavy vehicles with or without cargo. It calculates the net load by subtracting the vehicle’s tare weight from the gross weight.

🧰 Types of Weighbridges We Manufacture & Install

1. Pit Type Weighbridge

  • Built at ground level, suitable for space-constrained areas.

  • Easy access for vehicles from all directions.

  • Popular in urban areas like Ahmedabad and Surat.

2. Pitless Weighbridge

  • Installed above ground with ramps on both ends.

  • Ideal for areas with high water tables (e.g., coastal Gujarat).

  • Easier maintenance and cost-effective installation.

3. Mobile Weighbridge

  • Portable solution for temporary sites like construction zones or remote warehouses.

  • Installed on flat concrete blocks.

  • Requires minimal civil work and dismantles easily.

4. Axle Weighbridge

  • Measures individual axle weight to prevent overloading.

  • Suitable for highways, transport depots, and RTO use.
