DECEMBER 2013
Scotload, a manufacturer of
load indicators based in the
UK, has launched a new load
measurement technology,
named SmartLoad.
It has a simple data
logging facility for fleet
management. In addition,
it can record data for
verification during lifting
operations, so fleet owners
can see a correct log of all
operations that have been
carried out, the manufacturer
said. The system can also
display multiple units on
one handset for multi-point
load testing.
Phil Shaw, Scotload
sales director, said, “We
are delighted to be able
to announce the launch of
SmartLoad. Whether it is an
end-user performing a load
test needing to produce a
detailed report or a company
operating a large hire fleet,
SmartLoad can provide
the solution they need.
SmartLoad is a product that
the whole Scotload team
has been working on for
some time and we are very
proud of the end result which
will revolutionise the load
measurement market.”
