Adding grade control to your excavator comes with a host of benefits. It saves time by getting you to grade faster, reduces or eliminates overcutting and re-work, and can cut labour costs by negating the need for a grade checker. However, for many contractors, justifying the cost when margins are tight enough as it is can be a challenge. iDig is a lower-cost, versatile grade checking system that can be fitted to any make, model or size of excavator and work with multiple buckets, including tilt buckets and augers. There are also options for non-centre pivot machines. “This system is a game changer for contractors that want the benefits of grade control on their excavator, but can’t justify

The National Measurement Institute (NMI) advises that industrial scales should be calibrated every 6-12 months depending on the stresses applied to the scale, or after major hydraulic work is completed on the scale. This is for maintaining accuracy, fairness, and to comply with regulations that could otherwise cost you. Maintaining accuracy No matter how robust your industrial scale is, over time it becomes less accurate from natural wear-and-tear. Maintaining accuracy is important for both trade and non-trade purposes, including adhering to the load bearing capacity of a machine, or ensuring you have enough of a certain material for a construction project. When measuring large quantities of material, even a small discrepancy in the scale’s accuracy can result in
Machine operators, port workers, garden centre managers, and anyone who works with a loose material should be aware of the types of scales available to them, which are suitable for their needs, and what their requirements are. Learn more about the types of scales and which you should upgrade to below. Front end loader scales Front end loader scales are weighing systems built into the loaders’ hydraulic lift lines and feature an easy-to-read visual display. With front end loader scales, operators can determine the weight of the load simply by lifting the bucket at a constant lift speed, rather than having to drive to the weighbridge, stop, and turn around if loaded incorrectly. Weighing loads on front end
