Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift truck scales provide precise, real-time weight measurements without disrupting operations. Unlike traditional weighing methods that require stopping at a scale, our systems integrate weighing directly into the forklift’s routine, allowing operators to record weight data while moving. This eliminates time-consuming detours to static scales, reducing congestion and improving workflow efficiency. Whether handling palletized freight, mixed loads, or irregular shipments, our forklift scales ensure consistent accuracy, even on uneven surfaces or with tilted masts. With instant data capture, logistics providers can optimize truckloads, reduce revenue loss from undercharging, and streamline warehouse operations – all while keeping up with the fast-paced demands of the LTL environment.
Overview
Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift scales provide accurate, on-the-move weighing in demanding warehouse, distribution, and logistics environments.
Designed for Class II forklifts, our robust scales can weigh loads up to 5,000 lb, helping businesses improve efficiency and protect revenue without adding extra steps to their workflow. Mounted directly onto the forklift carriage, with a weight indicator in the cab, the system allows operators to weigh loads effortlessly while transporting them.
Built for durability, Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift scales feature two metal plates with Weigh Bar weight sensors, eliminating fragile components like springs, hydraulics, or flexures that could fail under heavy use. The system automatically adjusts for uneven ground, tilted masts, or off-center loads, ensuring precise weight readings in real time. By integrating weighing into material handling, our scales streamline operations, reduce errors, and enhance productivity – making them an essential tool for warehouses, distribution centers, and supply chains focused on efficiency and accuracy.
For freight and logistics companies, compliance with trade regulations is critical. Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift truck scales are legal for trade, meaning they meet industry standards for commercial transactions. This certification ensures that every weight measurement taken directly from the forklift is accurate enough for invoicing, avoiding disputes and revenue loss. By eliminating the need for off-site weigh stations, companies can process shipments faster while staying compliant with weight regulations. Our legal for trade forklift scales also help avoid costly penalties associated with overloaded trucks, ensuring that businesses operate within legal weight limits while optimizing payloads. With a certified solution integrated into daily operations, logistics providers can improve efficiency while maintaining compliance and customer trust.
Weight discrepancies can lead to mis-billed freight, rejected shipments, and inefficient load planning, impacting both revenue and customer satisfaction. Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift scales automate weighing at the point of loading, reducing human error and ensuring consistent, accurate weight data for every shipment. Operators no longer need to rely on separate scales or handwritten records – our system captures precise, real-time weight data directly in the cab, minimizing input mistakes. By integrating weight verification into the normal material handling process, logistics providers can reduce rework, loading delays, and disputes while increasing throughput. Whether handling high-volume LTL freight or complex logistics operations, these forklift scales help keep shipments moving smoothly while maximizing efficiency.
Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift scales don’t just weigh loads – they capture and transfer data seamlessly into existing logistics and warehouse management systems. Whether using WMS, ERP, or TMS platforms, our scales provide instant weight data for accurate billing, inventory tracking, and load optimization. Wireless connectivity options allow real-time communication with back-end systems, eliminating manual data entry and reducing errors. This means logistics providers can monitor shipments, verify compliance, and optimize freight distribution without adding extra steps. By automating weight data collection and integration, businesses can gain real-time visibility into operations, enhance decision-making, and improve overall efficiency.

Stronger – the most durable forklift scale solution on the market
Warehouses and distribution centers require durable, high-performance equipment that can withstand demanding conditions. Avery Weigh-Tronix forklift scales are engineered for the toughest environments, constructed with heavy-duty metal plates and Weigh Bar sensors that eliminate fragile components like springs and hydraulics. The scale communicates wirelessly to the in-cab weight indicator, eliminating the need for cables which can get trapped in the hydraulics and be prone to regular damage.
Our rugged, patented design ensures long-lasting reliability, even when handling heavy, uneven, or off-center loads. Unlike traditional scales that are prone to damage from shocks, vibrations, or harsh conditions, our forklift scales are built to perform under constant use and can withstand up to 200% overload. With minimal maintenance required, businesses can reduce downtime and repair costs, keeping operations running smoothly. When it comes to durability, no other forklift scale matches the strength and resilience of Avery Weigh-Tronix.
