Built to the Highest Standard

Tufner Scales is devoted to offering a complete line of truck scales to meet any application requirement, from a new installation, to a custom size for an existing concrete foundation. TUFNER was developed by utilizing our years of experience where we’ve always met the highest standard. We have turned it up a notch to create top quality, industrial tough scales. Our Tufner Truck Scale is built tough and is the ideal choice for a wide variety of vehicle weighing applications..

 

Exceptional Strength Outperforms Competitors’ Scales

TUFNER utilizes up to 7/16” tread plate decking for increased durability and strength, and is supported by orthotropic U-beam steel ribs that are completely sealed by continuous welds. Unlike our competitors’ design that uses I-beams and intermittent welds, which allows moisture to penetrate, Tufner truck scales are built with an airtight continuously welded seal that eliminates the potential for rusting from the inside out. The U-beam ribs are shaped to distribute concentrated loads and minimize flexing better than I-beam designs, leading to a longer life for your scale even in the harshest environments.

 

Interchangeable Modular Design Revolutionizes the Industry

TUFNER truck scales are the only scale of its kind available, thanks to our patented

modular design. Our distributors have the ability of stocking individual modules.
This allows them to build scales of any size per customers’ requirements, or to expand the length of the scale for future growth. Our Tufner Truck Scale is designed for easy access, which allows maintenance to be more efficient and cost-effective, versus the commonly seen non-modular or semi-modular designs.

 

Built with State-of-the-art Equipment

Each scale is built in a fully rotating fixture ensuring proper fit and finish. Rotation of the scale module during the assembly process guarantees uniform and precise welds. We can mass produce identical platforms greater than 20 ft long through our production lines.  

 

Ease of Installation, Loading and Unloading

Each module has as few as 6 bolts compared to 40 on all other modular designed

scales. Having less bolts minimizes the time of installing a 11’x70’ scale to only hours instead of days. Our Tufner Scale is shipped on an open side flat rack container, allowing for easy unloading. This has made it possible to unload our modular design panels with an industrial fork lift rather than a crane, saving our customers time and money. 

 

Powder Coat Finish

Tufner Weighing Systems utilizes a powder coat finish on all of our scale systems.

Compared to conventional painting methods, our technique has proven to be as much as 10 times more effective in resisting wear and corrosion in even the toughest of environments. Powder coat surfaces are more resistant to chipping, corrosion, scratching, fading, and wearing, than other finishes. More importantly, it contains zero solvents which is safe, and environmental friendly.

 

Hot dipped Galvanized

Tufner also offers hot dipped galvanization, the process of coating iron and steel with zinc, which strengthens the steel and builds its corrosion resistance. It’s non-corrosive properties are ideal for use in chemical industries and harsh areas.
