SAI Weighing Systems

A business decision to invest in a scale is almost always based on financial return. With weighing charges averaging $200 per railcar, your return on investment can be measured in months, not years. Look at the other benefits of weighing:

• Catch overloads before they leave town saves overload penalties, demurrage charges, delivery delays, and offloading costs.

• Accurate and timely weighing for billing freight charges and product invoicing.

• Monitor railcar weights for lost product in transit, weight agreement verification, and railcar utilization.

Systems Associates offers the complete solution for weighing railcars with our NP Series of modular weighbridges, both static and in-motion instrumentation, and data handling technology.

The NP Series of weighbridges install above grade and do not have confined space restrictions of other designs. In fact, the SAI weighbridge has the lowest profile available.

In addition to the weighing equipment, SAI can provide a complete turnkey installation. Our service capabilities includes a factory trained staff of field technicians ready to help with the installation and maintenance of your new system. SAI railcar weighing systems are used by all Class I Railroads, many regional and short line railroads, and industrial users. All of our systems meet or exceed the requirements of the AAR Scale Handbook, NIST Handbook 44, and the NCWM National Type Evaluation Program.

SAI will assist with all site approvals required by the servicing railroad. Our sales and engineering team will consult with you regarding the optimum site selection to provide the most accurate and reliable weighing system possible.

Whether your application requires a standard or custom design, SAI is your best choice for railcar weighing systems.
