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.

    Topcon says that its new IP-S2 package combines GNNS positioning capabilities with inertial sensors, while the firm also has a solution for customers wanting to mix and match receiver components. The IP-S2 is a vehicle-mounted, mobile 3D tool that offers precision mapping and surveying capabilities. The package collects data using 3D laser scanners, LIDAR, and/or cameras, and this is then integrated, time-stamped and geo-referenced. The customer can use this assembled data to combine LIDAR point cloud and d
