Installing a weighbridge isn’t just about placing a platform—it’s an infrastructure project. From choosing the right location to final calibration and government stamping, there’s a method to the process. Here's a simplified installation guide curated by Shree Shree Weighing Solutions, with over 15 years of hands-on experience across Gujarat.

📍 Step 1: Location Selection

  • Choose a flat, well-drained surface.

  • Ensure access for heavy trucks and minimum 6m of approach road.

  • Avoid areas with high groundwater or flooding.

🧱 Step 2: Civil Foundation

  • Pit-type: Requires deep RCC foundation.

  • Pitless: Needs concrete ramps on both ends.

  • Allow 15–20 days for drying and setting before equipment mounting.

Step 3: Electrical & Digital Setup

  • Load cell wiring

  • Printer & display integration

  • Connection to ERP or billing systems (POS ready if required)

Step 4: Government Stamping & Certification

  • Arrange for initial stamping from the Weights & Measures Department

  • We coordinate this for you and provide pan-India stamping service

📌 Pro Tip:

Always plan drainage and pest control systems in advance for long-term maintenance savings.
