It’s one thing to be in the market for an industrial floor scale… It’s actually quite a bit different to be in the market for an industrial platform scale designed to weigh large coils of steel. Below we offer two different brands of scales to consider. Both scales are manufactured by very good suppliers, Rice Lake and B-Tek. Let’s take a look at each below.

The Rice Lake Weighing Systems RoughDeck CS coil floor scale is a reinforced version of the standard Roughdeck model which we have mentioned numerous times over the years. These scales are uniquely suited to meet the demanding process of weighing dense coils of steel. The world’s toughest weighing jobs demand a scale like no other. Rice Lake’s RoughDeck CS was born for the unique task of weighing dense industrial materials to Legal for Trade accuracy. For steel coils, castings, cable spools or more, see why RoughDeck CS is the first and only scale investment you’ll ever make.

• Off the shelf, or made to order
• Custom sizes and capacities
• Rail and track versions custom built to your specifications
• Above ground or pit mounting
• Specialty coil cradles and fixtures

Steel handling is the ultimate test for industrial equipment. The RoughDeck CS’s tightly spaced steel I-beams, half-inch thick top plate, and the patented G-force™ self-checking mounting system make it the most solidly constructed scale on the market.

And when it comes to extreme conditions, the RoughDeck CS takes a punch and comes back for more, delivering accurate results, day after day. Rice Lake’s RoughDeck CS is Legal for Trade in capacities up to 100,000 pounds. Choose a standard platform size or we can design a RoughDeck CS to your custom specifications.

Another choice to consider when weighing steel coils is the B-Tek manufactured platform scale. The High Impact Coil Scale offers a rugged structural steel weighbridge and the reliability of double-ended shear beam load cells to provide legal for trade accuracy in extreme industrial applications. Industrial weighing operations require heavy-duty, reliable scales that function 24 hours continuously.

B-TEK offers a complete line of High Impact scales to satisfy these demanding applications. The High Impact series scales can be utilized in a number of applications, including: coil, pipe, and steel processing. Also, The High Impact scale can be used for coil transfer car weighing and coil processing lines.

So as you can see, both the above choices would make an outstanding choice for your steel weighing needs. If you need additional information or a quote, please contact the Central Carolina Scale sales department by phone at (919) 776-7737 or you can complete the Request a Quote form on our website.
