Weigh Point has been in the business of designing and selling loadcell based solutions for over two decades. We pride ourselves on being able to provide cost effective and efficient systems where other larger manufacturers have not.

Our most famous weigher, the Series V Loadcell was initially designed to meet the needs of one mine but has since been installed in over a dozen locations from Chile in South America to Arizona to Sudbury. Its rugged to withstand up to 450,000 kg shock loads, yet sensitive to reliably weigh just 3 or 4 tonnes of ore. Our system provides a signal directly into your PLC - no expensive additional electronics are needed. Athough we know of no system failures in the past 8 years of usage, we guarantee the loadcell’s quick release for servicing in just about 10 minutes.

Hoist weigh sensors, lift cage weight sensors and many other mine application systems are Weigh Point's domain. Various Loadcell Kits are available for these applications.

Aside from our loadcells specifically for mining, we have our unique mobile weighing systems. These systems find use in any industry that can benefit from weighing on the move. For example, the popular Lift Truck Weigh Kit may interest you. This kit is easily shipped, easily installed and easily operated. It will turn your lift truck into a 98%-99% accurate scale without affecting its lift capacity or fork clearance.
