Portable Axle Scale

Portable Axle Scale


Since 2003, Hener has led the evolution of smart, mobile industrial weighing solutions. From highway weigh stations to remote logistics sites, our mission is clear: empower businesses with accurate, flexible, and fast weighing—anywhere.

Traditional weigh stations are known for bottlenecks, compliance headaches, and operational delays. In contrast, Hener's portable axle scale systems enable instant weight checks on site, transforming how logistics, agriculture, and industrial sectors manage fleet operations.

In this blog, we'll explore:

  • The hidden costs of static weigh stations

  • The rise of mobile weighing

  • How Hener's portable axle scale technology changes the game

  • Industry-specific applications and ROI

Let's break free from bottlenecks.



The Problem with Traditional Weigh Stations


Weigh stations were designed to protect roads from overloaded vehicles and ensure compliance. But they come with serious limitations:

Congestion & Delays

Long queues at public weigh stations create downtime for fleets, especially during peak hours. Drivers may wait 30–60 minutes per stop—multiplied across deliveries, that's hours of lost productivity.

Remote Area Limitations

In mining, agriculture, and cross-border operations, weigh stations are few and far between. Hauling loads without real-time weight visibility increases risk of violations or unsafe driving conditions.

High Infrastructure Costs

Installing a permanent truck scale requires civil works, permits, and major capital investment—often exceeding $50,000. It's simply not feasible for all operators.

Missed Opportunities for Data

Most fixed stations lack real-time connectivity. Weight data is not centralized, making reporting and traceability difficult.



The Mobile Weighing Revolution


Enter mobile axle scales. Hener has pioneered these portable solutions to give businesses autonomy, speed, and flexibility.

“We wanted to eliminate the guesswork in vehicle loading—anywhere, any time,” says Hener Product Director Liu Jian.

Portable axle scales can be deployed in under 5 minutes, weigh vehicles in motion or static mode, and deliver certified results directly to your system.



5 Reasons to Switch to Hener Mobile Weighing

Case Study: Breaking Bottlenecks in Cross-Border Logistics


A freight forwarding company in Guangxi, China, operating across the China-Vietnam border, replaced their weigh station dependency with Hener portable axle scales.

Results:

  • Loading time reduced by 35%

  • Zero overloading fines in 6 months

  • Real-time weight tracking integrated into their ERP

"We used to dread weigh station stops. Now, we weigh trucks as they load," said the logistics manager.



Industry Use Cases for Mobile Axle Scales

Logistics & Warehousing

  • Validate axle weights before dispatch

  • Prevent overloads during cross-docking

  • Streamline vehicle check-in/check-out

Agriculture

  • Weigh produce on the field, directly from harvesters

  • Ensure fair pricing for grain, sugarcane, or livestock

Construction & Mining

  • Weigh trucks carrying aggregate, cement, or earth

  • Confirm legal weights before public road entry

Law Enforcement & Road Safety

  • Use for roadside weight enforcement

  • Instant deployment during patrols



Smart Weighing, Powered by Hener Technology


At the heart of every Hener portable axle scale is our proprietary sensor and data system:

  • Strain gauge load cell for precise pressure reading

  • Digital amplification for zero drift and stability

  • Battery-powered indicators with 40h runtime

  • Optional GPS + Camera for location-stamped weigh reports

Each set is tested and calibrated in our ISO9001-certified factory in Jiangsu, China.



Compliance You Can Count On


Hener products meet global compliance standards:

  • CE certification

  • OIML / NTEP load cell calibration

  • ISO9001:2015 quality management
