Bridgewater, Somerset-based Langdons runs 190 trucks,
ranging through 7.5 to 44 tonnes, and is a specialist reefer operator with its fleet spread across six depots. ''We carry chilled and frozen foodsmeat and dairy products," says fleet engineer Graham Millard.
It has already retrofitted its pool of 7.5 and 18-tonners with older Axtec weighing systems, but this month sees the company's first use of the.
On-Board device. :
Operators are not legally required to
stall such systeMq:PRIiiit the nature of Langdons' work can
make overloading an occupational hazard Millard says his drivers don't lust make multi-drops but also perform "multicollection" jobs, collecting from food factories and farms. As such, axle weights fluctuate constantly. "Axtec are very professional and have done everything we've required of them," he says.
