Libra - Double Life Composite Weighbridge
Our flagship Double Life weighbridges have a lifespan of over 50 years due to the 200 mm (8 inch) thick composite decks. Most steel decks are just 6 to 10mm plate, which wear through much quicker. The standard beams on a steel weighbridge start to corrode and rust over time. Composite Never rusts, plus we don’t use standard beams, we use Columns, the sections are much heavier, stronger and harder wearing.
Unrivalled 15 year Guarantee
The design and integrity of the Double Life allows us to offer, a very competitive price and an unrivaled 15 Year Guarantee on the weighbridge deck structure. 5 Year Guarantee on all electronics which includes Lightning Protection, seldom if ever supplied by other manufacturers.
Superior Build Quality
Most weighbridges are only as good as the welding that holds them together. The Double life is Non-Dependant on welding, as the concrete binds the weighbridge together and encases the welding.
We use a combination of High Grade C-40 Fibre Granite Concrete and steel reinforcing, completely encased in Heavy duty steel columns. The steel structure alone would carry over 100 Tonnes, then we add the concrete. This makes for an incredibly strong structure, believed to be the strongest weighbridge manufactured anywhere. The design has a minimum life span of 50 Years, with standard traffic volume.
Install on Sloping Surface
Double Life Weighbridges can also be installed onto sloping roadways, up to 1:30 inclines. The deviation can be, Longitudinal, Lateral or both. Special fixings are installed along with the load cells, to maintain equal forces, throughout the weighbridge. This technique, can save thousands of pounds, by eliminating the need for new foundations.
Optional Invertible Deck Design
The Double Life Weighbridge can be manufactured with invertible deck sections. This simple transformation gives it a NEW Surface and doubles its life over any other weighbridge on the market. In effect, you are getting two weighbridges for the price of one.
