RDS Technology’s Loadex/Loadmaster weighing systems

RDS Technology’s retrofittable Loadex 100 excavator weighing system is designed specifically to weigh the contents of a 360° excavator bucket/clamp, while operating in the fastest loading environments. Calculations are made by a smart box using information from a number of sensors installed on the excavator, ensuring the accuracy of the resultant weight information, says RDS Technology.

RDS Technology Loadex100 excavator weighing system is retrofittable
2587 RDS Technology’s retrofittable Loadex 100 excavator weighing system is designed specifically to weigh the contents of a 360° excavator bucket/clamp, while operating in the fastest loading environments.

Calculations are made by a smart box using information from a number of sensors installed on the excavator, ensuring the accuracy of the resultant weight information, says RDS Technology.

RDS Technology’s Loadmaster a100 weighing system is designed for wheeled, telescopic and tractor-type loaders, and it has a CAN-based system combining cutting-edge sensor technology and signal processing techniques.

iSOSYNC PC software has been designed by RDS Technology to function with both the Loadex and the Loadmaster a100, and allows the rapid transfer of job information from a central computer to the loader or excavator. The resultant load information is then sent back to the PC upon completion.

    Leica Geosystems has unveiled its new powerful Leica iCON 3D machine control system for wheeled loaders. The Swiss firm says the system allows users to complete their earthworks jobs faster and correctly the first time. It is also said to precisely control material cut and fill, saving a lot of time and money by reducing rework and over-excavation, while also making grading operations with wheeled loaders more efficient. Grade checking, says Leica, can be eliminated, further enhancing productivity, efficien
