Roller Deck / Pancake Scale (Warehouse, Air Cargo )

The air freight industry is booming, and people must ensure that the things they ship are safe while in transit. Generally, aircraft must weigh the cargo to determine where it should sit on the flight and if it's light enough for travel on that particular airplane.

Cargo scales serve the same purpose, but there are four different types you should know about. These include:

Pancake Cargo Scale

The pancake scale is great if you require something you can set up and remove easily. They're designed for portability and often have ramps all the way around to load and unload effortlessly. They usually handle 20,000 lbs. and are great for indoor/outdoor use.

Ball Deck Cargo Scale

A ball deck cargo scale also features ramps on all sides, but there are large balls added to stabilize the trailers when weighing. They're used with cargo scales, such as floor or platform scales, and can also handle up to 20,000 lbs.

Caster Deck Cargo Scale

Caster deck cargo scales also have ramps on all sides, but the 360-degree castors set it apart from the others. This is great if you're using a scale in many locations.

Roller Deck Cargo Scale

Roller deck scales help the cargo containers roll on and off easily. They're customizable, so the rollers can be horizontally or vertically aligned.

Companies that ship large items will benefit from this type of scale. Here are a few examples:

• Distilleries
• Chemical Plants
• Farms
