MWS Introduces the AxChk4 for Static, Real-Time Vehicle Weight Monitoring

Revolutionising vehicle weighing for clients like Marks Electrical

Leicester, County Durham, UK, 10 September 2024 – Micro Weighing Solutions (MWS Ltd), the independent UK manufacturer of industrial weighing equipment, is proud to announce the launch of its latest product, the AxChk4. This static vehicle weight monitoring system, already in use by prominent UK white goods retailer Marks Electrical, represents a significant advancement in ensuring compliance with vehicle weight regulations.

The AxChk4 is a real-time vehicle weight monitoring system designed to address the growing need for accurate and efficient weight management in the logistics and delivery industries. It consists of four European-made weighpads, levellers, two ramps, a Micro 6000 indicator, WeiMon software for data capture, and three large display screens that show the weight of both axles, as well as the gross vehicle weight.

A key component of the AxChk4 is the calculation app built by MWS, which not only provides real-time feedback on both axles as well as the gross vehicle weight, but also eliminates the need for manual calculations. The app displays clear, colour-coded indicators that show whether the axles or vehicle are underweight, close to the maximum weight, or overweight via a traffic light style system. Additionally, MWS has plans to further enhance the app’s functionality, including a new feature that will inform operators of the remaining weight capacity, allowing for even greater operational precision.

This solution not only enhances compliance with road safety regulations but also streamlines operations, saving valuable time and resources.

Andrew Clarke, Managing Director of MWS, said, “The AxChk4 exemplifies our commitment to innovation using existing products and our ability to create new solutions where none previously existed. We listened to the specific needs of our customer and developed a system that not only met those needs but also sets a new standard in real-time vehicle weight monitoring during loading. This product is a testament to our dedication to ensuring that our clients can operate safely, efficiently, and with complete confidence.”

Marks Electrical, known for its commitment to excellence in customer service and operational efficiency, has successfully implemented the AxChk4 to weigh its fleet of delivery vans.

Ben Martin, Operations Manager at Marks Electrical, said, “The AxChk4 has been a transformative addition to our operations. The ability to quickly and easily monitor vehicle weight in real-time during the loading process has significantly reduced the risk of overloading, enhanced our compliance and optimised our delivery processes. Most importantly, it proactively ensures the safety of our drivers and other road users.”
