Loadmass is a leader in the supply and installation of on-board truck scales to the Australian truck market and the company proudly states this as it has recently gained Transport Certification Australia (TCA), smart on-board mass (OBM) Category B type approval. This has been gained using the LM300 Can-Coder Scale System developed and tested in Australia in conjunction with the manufacturer of the Loadman product in the US.

The Category B approval confirms the robust design of the Loadman product, as it has met all stringent testing requirements set by TCA for both hardware and software.

Loadmass can also boast that it was the first on-board scale company in Australia to receive TCA Category A type approval.

The OBM type approval allows Loadmass to provide its customers seeking higher mass limits access to a scale system that is digitally connected to Smart OBM systems, allowing not only the recording of the load, but offers other safety and regulatory information for compliance purposes.

Road access arrangements for higher mass, such as those relating to performance-based standards and high productivity vehicles, may require mass data information to be collected using a Smart OBM system.

The Loadman LM300 system’s recent approval means its product is ideal for its customers, who will benefit from the productivity gains available. The return on investment will come back to the truck operator in a very short time.

Loadmass is also the distributor for the Airtec range of on-board scales, which have recently received TCA Category B type approval. Loadmass really is the place to go for all your on-board scale solutions.

As well as the TCA type approved products, Loadmass has developed its own LMA range of products specifically designed for the rigid truck market in Australia.
