High-Accuracy Container Weighing System for Ports, Logistics & Industry

1. Product Overview

A Container Scale is a professional industrial weighing system designed to accurately measure the gross weight of standard shipping containers. It is widely used in ports, container terminals, logistics hubs, container yards, manufacturing plants, and international trade operations.

As global logistics regulations and safety standards become increasingly strict, accurate, traceable, and compliant container weighing has become a critical requirement. Container scales provide fast, reliable weight data before shipment, loading, or transportation.

2. Why Accurate Container Weighing Matters

Regulatory Compliance

• Compliance with SOLAS VGM (Verified Gross Mass)

• Avoid penalties, shipment delays, and rejected cargo

• Improve credibility in international shipping

Transportation Safety

• Prevent overloading of vehicles and containers

• Reduce accident risks and equipment damage

• Protect personnel and cargo

Cost & Efficiency Control

• Accurate freight cost calculation

• Fewer disputes related to weight discrepancies

• Optimized logistics planning

3. System Structure & Working Principle

A container scale typically consists of:

• High-precision load cells

• Heavy-duty steel or modular structure

• Weighing indicator and display unit

• Data communication and integration modules

The system converts mechanical load into electrical signals, processes the data, and displays accurate container weight in real time.

4. Key Features & Advantages

• High accuracy and repeatability

• Robust industrial construction

• Flexible installation options

• Digital integration with logistics systems

5. Application Areas

• Ports and container terminals

• Logistics and freight forwarding companies

• Container yards (CY / ICD)

• Manufacturing and export facilities

• Customs and bonded warehouses

6. Long-Term Benefits

A container scale is not just equipment—it is a strategic investment that delivers safety, compliance, operational efficiency, and data transparency.
