eNiaC on-board weighing on a CAT 988 loader for Larsinos S.A.

The outcome

• Weighing at the loading point, no trip to the weighbridge
• Weighing ticket per load from the cab
• Installed in a few hours

iOLABS installed the eNiaC on-board weighing system on a CAT 988 wheel loader of Larsinos S.A., so that every bucket is weighed at the moment of loading.

What was done

eNiaC was fitted to the company's CAT 988 loader: pressure sensors on the hydraulic circuit, position sensors, the central unit in the cab and a thermal printer. Installation, calibration and system settings are completed within a few hours, without taking the loader out of work.

What the operator gains

The operator sees the weight of each bucket and the running total on screen, picks the material from a list, removes the last bucket if needed and prints a weighing ticket with date, time, material and total right after loading.

Today

The LARSINOS S.A. plants now belong to Lafarge. Some of them still run on iOLABS automation.
