RDS is offering accurate and versatile weighing systems for a range of machine applications
RSS2587 RDS Technology says it is pushing the boundaries of weighing technology with its advanced Loadmaster i range of on-board weighing scales. according to the firm the new range, designed for use on wheeled loaders, benefits from upgrades to the weighing algorithm for static and dynamic weighing modes. The Loadmaster 8000i has an integral SD card port for fast and efficient transfer of data between loader and weighbridge or office PC and allows pre-registered customer data to be uploaded directly to the instrument. RDS is also offering the trade-approved Loadmaster 9000i with European MID weights and Measures approval. Fitted to a wheeled loading shovel, this on-board unit gives the machine the performance of a mobile weighbridge that conforms to class Y(a) and Y(b) levels of accuracy.

The Loadmaster 9000i DMM features an extended data-handling module with the integral SD card port central to the system. Up to six separate reference fields for each truck loading cycle can be stored in a database for detailed record keeping. Details of each field can be uploaded to the instrument from the SD card or programmed onto the card directly through the instrument.

The card exports the weighing data into an Excel compatible file, ready for use with company invoice and record systems. Also benefitting from upgrades to weighing software is the new generation Loadlog 500+ for compact loaders and skid-steers. This instrument is cost-effective, easy to use and the new software developments allow for increased accuracy and consistency of bucket and total load results.

This compensates for the effect of external influences on the system, such as engine/lift speed.
