High-Capacity Train Weighbridges

Rail Weighbridges (High-Capacity Train Scales) are specialized systems designed to measure the weight of heavy wagons and trains, playing a critical role in railway transport management, cargo loading and unloading control, and prevention of financial errors. Herat Armaghan Company, as a pioneer in manufacturing this type of scale in Afghanistan, produces and supplies the latest generation of rail weighbridges with full compliance to international standards, modern technology, and genuine European equipment.

Engineered Structure and Design

The weighbridge structure is designed like an engineered bridge and can be constructed as:

• Fully metallic

• Fully concrete

• Or a combination of metal and concrete

These structures are installed on standard concrete foundations and are capable of withstanding extremely heavy weights, continuous wagon traffic, and harsh environmental conditions. Depending on project requirements, the weighbridges can be pit-type (in-ground) or surface-type (above ground) and designed as fixed installations.

Precision Measurement with European Standard Load Cells

Weight measurement is carried out using precise and certified European load cells. The load cells are the heart of the weighing system, and correct selection ensures:

• High accuracy

• Long-term stability

• Error-free repeatability

The scale is designed so that the appropriate number of load cells is used according to dimensions, weight, and application type.

Digital Display and Smart Control System

Weight data is transmitted from the load cells to the junction box and then displayed on a high-precision digital display. The displays offer:

• Weight printing

• Computer connectivity

• Data storage

• Reporting

• Compatibility with weighing management software

These features make the weighing process faster, more accurate, and reliable.

Custom Dimensions and Capacities

Herat Armaghan rail weighbridges can be manufactured in various dimensions and capacities, including standard lengths for freight wagons and capacities exceeding 200 tons per wagon. The scales can be customized according to project needs and wagon types, allowing precise measurement of heavy trains.

Importance of Accuracy and Reliability

A scale must provide both accuracy (correct measurement at the moment) and reliability (stability over time). Low-quality scales may initially be accurate but can produce serious errors and financial losses over time. Herat Armaghan scales, built with high-quality materials, standard structures, and certified electronic components, ensure both accuracy and reliability.

Installation, Maintenance, and Support Across Afghanistan

Herat Armaghan provides:

• Scale installation and commissioning

• Periodic maintenance and repair

• Assembly and technical adjustments

• Supply of essential parts such as load cells, displays, waterproof junction boxes, and printers

A Reliable Choice for Various Industries

Herat Armaghan rail weighbridges are ideal for:

• Railway lines and cargo terminals

• Transit and rail transport companies

• Mining and heavy industries

• Industrial and infrastructure projects

• Customs and railway terminals

Widespread use of these scales by rail lines and industrial institutions demonstrates customer trust and satisfaction with the quality and performance of the company’s products.
