PROFIT MORE WITH LOADRITE ON-BOARD WEIGHING SCALES

SmartTech Australia is the authorised Loadrite dealer across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia. For over 38 years, Loadrite has set the global standard in on-board weighing scales, trusted by mining, quarrying, civil construction, waste management and port logistics operations worldwide.

Loadrite payload management technology eliminates costly weighbridge stops. Operators get real-time, accurate payload data directly in the cab, maximising every load, every cycle and every shift. Whether you’re running excavators, wheel loaders, haul trucks, conveyor belts or forklifts, there is a Loadrite scale engineered for your machine.

All Loadrite systems are NMI approved and available as Legal for Trade, ensuring your operation stays compliant with Australian axle load regulations and Chain of Responsibility laws. Accurate weighing means no overload fines, reduced mechanical wear and measurable improvements in your tonnes per hour output.

The Process

How Loadrite Works

From the first bucket to the final delivery docket, Loadrite keeps your operation accurate, compliant and moving without a single weighbridge stop.

1

Machine Loads

The operator loads the bucket, bin or conveyor as normal. No extra steps, no weighbridge trip needed before starting the cycle.

2

Scale Weighs in Real Time

The Loadrite system calculates payload instantly and displays it in the cab. The operator knows exactly how much they're carrying on every single cycle.

3

Ticket Prints Automatically

A delivery docket prints on the spot or data syncs directly to InsightHQ. Full load records are captured for compliance, billing and reporting.

4

Drive Away. No Delays.

The truck leaves the site fully loaded, legally compliant and on time. No weighbridge queues, no overload risk, no lost productivity.

A Legal for Trade (LFT) scale is a weighing instrument that has been certified by the National Measurement Institute (NMI) to meet strict accuracy standards for commercial transactions in Australia. If you are selling goods by weight, charging customers based on payload, or operating under Chain of Responsibility obligations, you are required to use a verified LFT system. Loadrite offers NMI approved Legal for Trade options across its scale range. Learn more about Legal for Trade scales here.

On-board weighing eliminates the need for trucks to queue at a static weighbridge between every load. Operators get real-time payload confirmation in the cab on every cycle, which means they load to the correct target first time, every time. This reduces under-loading, prevents overloading fines and mechanical wear, and significantly increases the total tonnes moved per shift across your fleet.

Yes. Loadrite refuse truck scales manage individual bin weights and total axle loads in real time, helping waste operators stay within legal load limits on every run. This protects your drivers under Chain of Responsibility law, reduces wear on your fleet and helps optimise collection routes. Find out more about our Loadrite waste solutions.

Yes. Loadrite conveyor belt scales are designed to monitor material throughput on both fixed and mobile processing plants. They weigh continuously as material moves across the belt, giving you real-time tonnes per hour data without stopping production. This makes them ideal for quarries, wash plants, and aggregate processing operations.

Under Australian Chain of Responsibility (CoR) legislation, everyone in the transport chain, including loaders and site managers, has a legal duty to ensure vehicles are not overloaded. Loadrite on-board weighing systems provide accurate, real-time payload data and a printed or digital load record for every cycle. This gives your business documented proof of compliance and helps prevent costly fines and road safety incidents.
