What should I do with this 60 year old track scale? It's a pity to abandon it, the original steel bridge structure itself is still strong. But if fully rebuilt, it is not only expensive but also time-consuming.
In this way“To both preserve and upgrade”In the midst of the conflict, Intico and the Kilomatic Wiegetechnische team jointly developed a special renovation plan. Only mechanical components will be replaced, and the historical structure will still be preserved. And with YintaikePR 6221 Weighing SensorThe installation kit has built a precise, durable, and sturdy weighing base, perfectly compatible with 60 ton diesel locomotives and other vehicles.
The stability and accuracy performance of the system during the first trial runWell done, beyond everyone's expectationsThere is no need for recalibration at all, and the subsequent compliance assessment is also excellent. This renovation can be regarded as a demonstration of "old equipment entering a new era": Yintaike empowers old structures with new technologies to achieve digitalization and modernization of equipment.
