Vehicles / Cement Trucks = Safety 2.0

Onboard weighing systems for cement trucks and concrete mixers.

Know your true empty weight, load right up to the legal limit, and deliver to several sites from a single load, with weighing accuracy up to legal-for-trade certified level.

 
 
 

Short routes, tight margins, strict weight limits.

Cement trucks rarely drive long distances, but fleet managers and construction companies still have to keep drivers safe, stay within legal weight limits and load as close to those limits as possible. VPG Onboard Weighing systems give you the precision and reliability to get that balance right, which is why they lead the market in on-vehicle weighing for construction vehicles.

 
Cement Truck Weighing

Drum build-up costs payload. Weighing shows when to clean.

Residual cement building up inside the drum adds weight to the truck and reduces how much cement or aggregate you can legally carry. A clean drum is key to maximising payload, but cleaning takes time and money.

Our load cell-based onboard weighing systems report vehicle weight at all times. When the empty weight is higher than normal, you know material has built up in the drum, so cleaning happens only when it is actually needed.

BulkWeigh systems are part of our standard installation on customers' trucks. They are easy to install and are very reliable.

Load Optimization

More deliveries per load, built for the building site.

Accurate weight data does more than keep you legal. It helps you plan routes, split loads between customers and keep trucks working in the conditions construction throws at them.

Clean the drum only when needed

Live weight data reveals build-up in the drum, so you save cleaning time and resources without giving away payload.

Several customers, one load

Legal-for-trade certified systems calculate the payload for each drop-off, so you can serve multiple clients from a single load and bill each one correctly.

Robust, and telematics-ready

Built to handle rain, mud, dust and rough terrain. All systems connect to third-party platforms, sending weight, location, time, safety and compliance data back to fleet managers.

Weighing systems for cement trucks and concrete mixers

From a dedicated mixer scale to fit-and-forget overload protection, choose the accuracy level your operation needs.

 
Concrete Mixer Weighing

A three-point mixer scale designed specifically for cement mixer vehicles. Easy to install and highly accurate, so you can deliver to several sites from one load and know exactly how much went to each for invoicing.
