The Weigh In Motion Infinity – LS weighbridge system is the ideal low speed (up to 15kmh) solution for mine
loadouts, industrial plants, cement plant, power stations, steel mills etc. It consists of 2 electronic weigh sleepers & 4
dummy sleepers braced together forming one solid structure, including accessories, control cabinet and a PC with
train weighing software.
The Infinity – LS train weighing system is installed one wagon length or more out from the loadout and provides the
operator axle, bogie and wagon weight data in real time. This unique train weighing system enables the loading
operator to regulate the filling so that the wagons are not overloaded. Weight data storage, printout & other
features are available and train weighing results can be accessed from any location via the internet.
Installation of the Infinity - LS train weighing system takes approximately 1 ~ 2 days. Concrete foundation or civil
works are not always required. However, this is greatly dependent upon site conditions, although some form of
ballast stabilisation is highly recommended to eliminate impact effects at the weighing transition points to ensure
weighing accuracy and scale reliability.
The High-Speed Weigh In Motion Infinity - HS is capable of train weighing up to 80kmh, dependent on track/site
conditions, test train/rolling stock. The rail weighing system consists of 6 electronic weigh sleepers & 12 dummy
sleepers braced together forming one solid structure, including accessories, control cabinet and a PC with train
weighing software. Train weighing results can be accessed from any location via the internet
Installation of the Infinity - HS train weighing system takes approximately 2 ~ 3 days. Concrete foundation or civil
works are not always required; however, this is greatly dependent upon site conditions. Whilst the unique
engineering of the steel framework further enhances the overall stability and load distribution of the high speed
weighing system, it is highly recommended that some form of ballast stabilisation is also installed to eliminate
impact effects at the weighing transition points to ensure weighing accuracy and scale reliability.

• Robust • Accurate • Reliable
The Trakblaze Bogie Press, is a semi portable test rig that has been designed to provide Robust and
Reliable weighing results for rail maintenance and manufacturing depots. Each Wheel load is measured in
addition to the load applied, therefore giving the results of the effects of simulated loading. All results are
reported and stored, on the standard touch screen PC, via the User Friendly Trakblaze Bogie Weighing
Software.
The Bogie Press can be built to suit 2 or 3 axle bogies, with varying axle centres and for differing rail
gauges. The system is also capable of having either single or paired independent loading points that can
be operated from the control desk. With a modular design the whole bogie press can easily be
transported in a standard container or on a rigid truck. It can therefore be set up at a new location within
hours of delivery and provides great cost savings against traditional in-built/permanent bogie presses.

Realtime Volumetric Scanning Software for
Wagon Load Optimisation
System Description
The Auto Scan software has been developed specifically to allow direct acquisition of data from Hi-Speed 2D lasers over an IP network.
Custom developed algorithms built into the software use captured data to generate volume information and measurement parameters for each
train ore wagon allowing for improved productivity through full-time monitoring of mission critical data.
The goal of the software which runs on a Microsoft™ Windows platform is for fast calculation and transportation of real time feedback and key
metrics,to optimise loading of each and every wagon. In turn, this assists operators in the fine tuning of loading operations.
System Features
The auto scan processing software provides near real-time outputs to the
industrial data network.
Features:
>A responsive design using multi-threaded technology.
>Calculation of production critical parameters in less than 10
seconds
> Easy installation and configuration.
>TCP interface to 2x SICK LMS511 lasers to gather raw laser data.
> MODBUSTCP interface to provide an industry standard data
delivery mechanism
>Data items delivered to the industrial network are;
• Front Freeboard (em)
• Rear Freeboard (em)
• Side Freeboard (em)
• Volume per wagon (m3)
• Data Valid flag (valid I not valid)
• Laser status flag for remote maintenance monitoring

Load Sensors
Each weigh pad incorporates multiple heavy
duty “OIML approved” temperature
compensated load cells. The strategic
positioning of these sensors within the pad
allows for off-center wheel loads to be
measured accurately and with a safe overload
sufficient to deal with the inertia and shock
effects of a loaded mining truck braking on the
weigh pad.
Accuracy
Accuracies of +- 0.05 in static mode
and +- 0.5% in dynamic (in-motion)
mode approximately, are
achievable dependent upon the
site conditions and the operator.

Realtime Volumetric Scanning System for
Mine Haul Trucks
System Description
Trucks are ‘scanned’ by driving slowly below an elevated Scan Head. This is essentially a mounting
platform for two scanning laser range-finders, which are referred to as laser scanners. When a truck
crosses the Scan Area below the Scan Head it falls within the field of view of these laser scanners which
perform thousands of distance measurements per second

PROFIT-FOCUSED
Take the time to contact us, just as our valued customers did before they invested in a static or weigh
in motion scale; as installing an inferior scale without maintenance capability, onsite servicing, spare
parts and calibration will become a costly mistake. A mistake that will interrupt production, cause
unnecessary downtime and ultimately drive down profits.
INDUSTRY SPECIALISATION
Static, Dynamic and High Speed in motion weighing is a very specialised field, and Trakblaze Pty Ltd is
the only company in the world that has the most comprehensive range of train, truck, mining and
aircraft weighing and balancing equipment. These weighing systems include high speed in motion
weighbridges, balancing systems and portable scales for all passenger, freight trains, rail workshop as
well as any type of rail or road vehicle.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Trakblaze Pty Ltd has an industry reputation for building quality, reliable, tough and robust weighing
systems for our valued customers which are relatively simple to install and require low maintenance.
Our weighing systems are manufactured under strict conditions, using only the latest load cell
technology, linked to our superior user friendly weighing software.
