Supply by Kerry Clines, Senior Editor WEIGH IT RIGHT Without loading scales and weighing equipment, aggregate operations would be back in the Dark Ages â€” just loading material until it looked like the right amount. Cardinal Scale BUILT ROCK SOLID Cardinal says its EPR truck scales are built rock solid, featuring 3/8-inchthick steel decks and stainless-steel, environmentally sealed load cells. The scale can weigh up to 150 tons and is legal-for-trade up to 14 feet wide. Optional integrated wireless capabilities are available. Cardinal Scale; cardet.com.

The scale is said to be designed to produce an accurate and consistent weight every time. It features proprietary Friction and Ambient Compensation Technology (FACT) software to calculate an accurate weight regardless of time of day, machine type, operator, or temperature.
