2587 RDS Technology is launching the LOADMASTER a100 on-board weighing system that is described by the UK-based manufacturer as an industry benchmark in terms of accuracy and ease of use in difficult conditions and terrains.

The all-new CAN-based system combines cutting edge sensor technology and signal processing techniques providing precise and consistent weight information, says RDS.

“With the ever-increasing focus on productivity, LOADMASTER a100 has been designed to operate within the fastest loading environments and toughest of conditions compensating for uneven, sloped ground and restricted loading areas reducing cycle times and maximising tons per hour performance,” says the company.

“Loading correctly first time eradicates return trips to the stockpile reducing vehicle movement, fuel usage and machine and tyre wear.”

The new unit uses a 7” colour, resistive-touch screen display and additional physical keys and is said to be suitable for use with up to ten different attachments, for example buckets or forks, and the system can be retrofitted onto wheeled, telescopic and tractor-type loaders.

Also making its Bauma debut will be the LOADMASTER iX range of on-board weighing systems.

Stand: A3.632

    Productivity and profitability mean more than how many metres per minute your cold planer mills. In today’s world, precision is every bit as important as pace. Precision eliminates costly rework. It ensures crews don’t remove excess materials, and incur the associated costs in fuel, hauling and machine life. Precision also impacts the entire life—and cost—of a project by creating the proper foundation on which all subsequent work occurs. Cat® Grade and Slope for cold planers helps deliver that precision.
