Truck Scale Maintenance to Reduce Downtime

Truck scale maintenance is crucial, as the scale is one of the most important pieces of equipment at any facility. It is the customer’s cash register. Inaccurate weights due to mud/debris build up underneath a weighbridge can cost them huge sums of money; into the hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly if the scale is used extensively. However, downtime and weighing errors can be greatly reduced by following a basic truck scale maintenance schedule. 


At Alternative Weighing Solutions, precision is our priority. Our scale calibration services are designed to ensure your equipment provides accurate, reliable measurements, keeping your operations running smoothly and in compliance with industry standards.


Why Calibration Matters

Accurate scales are critical to the success of your business. Over time, even the most advanced weighing systems can drift out of calibration due to regular use, environmental changes, or wear and tear. Calibration ensures your equipment meets performance standards, minimizes errors, and protects your bottom line.

  • Preventative Maintenance Programs:  It is recommended to have your scale inspected, calibrated, and certified by a licensed scale service company at least once per year. If the scale sees heavy use, the inspection frequency should be increased to quarterly to ensure that your scale is weighing accurately, especially if your scale is being used in a legal for trade application subject to Handbook 44 testing requirements. 
  • Cleanout/Calibration Program: Our team uses specialized cleaning methods to a flush all excess debris without damaging the sensitive weighing equipment. If your scale has debris buildup, we can customize a solution to keep your scale performing properly and weighing accurately.
