Purpose

• To provide information on commercially available weighing systems for aircraft and ground systems.

Ground equipment and vehicle Axle Scale

Background

• MCAS Beaufort does not have an in-ground or mobile axle scale.

• The nearest scales are located at a truck weigh station in Georgia, approximately 1 hour from the air station.

• This squadron currently utilizes individual wheel scales to weigh all equipment, which is a timely process, causing significant delays in the throughput process.

Background

• During axles scale testing, a scale site was established, the squadron was able to weigh 25 items of rolling stock and containers significantly faster than the current method.

• It took 3 hours from set up to tear down. Using the current method, this would have taken 6-8 hours.
