Rice Lake onboard scale

Rice Lake’s new Legal for Trade onboard scale, TradeRoute, lets drivers bypass local truck scales and conduct business directly to and from their payload.

TradeRoute operates from a parked position via hydraulics. The scale’s load cells support the vehicle’s load only during the weigh cycle. It’s designed to install around the frame of many common straight-truck designs using a combination of frame-hugging weigh modules, a stainless steel junction box and a weatherproof control center that houses Rice Lake’s 920i Indicator/Controller and Epson TM-U295 Ticket Printer, the company says, and the system can be customized for individual customers’ needs.
