Air-Weigh 5800-series tractor scales are now a factory option for all Western Star Trucks with rear air suspensions. The Air-Weigh scales are spec'd through the custom application engineering offered by Western Star.
On-board scales improve fleet productivity and reduce operating costs and delays caused by check-weighing. Air-Weigh claims to be the only on-board scale manufacturer offering an in-dash scale for tractors. When an Air-Weigh equipped tractor picks up a trailer with an Air-Weigh scale, the trailer weight data is automatically sent to the truck's in-dash display, where the driver is able to see steer, drive, and up to seven trailer axle weights along with net payload and GVW. The system communicates over existing wiring between the tractor and trailer and operates off of the vehicle power, making the Air-Weigh system a completely integrated weight management device. Once calibrated, Air-Weigh customers claim weight accuracy to be well within 300 pounds of a DOT scale. For more information, visit www.air-weigh.com.
