• Equipment specifically designed for weighing and recording the axle loads of container traffic will be the central theme of the stand of W. and T. Avery Ltd., Soho Foundry, Birmingham, 40, at the International Container Services Exhibition at Olympia in May.
Portable and fixed axle-weighers will include a type 5801CFL portable wheelweigher of 6 tons capacity, equipped with an indicator and detachable ramps so that it can be used on a level surface without foundations being necessary. It is intended primarily for checking correct weight distribution of freight.
Soon to be available to private operators is a 30-ton-capacity axle-weigher of a type supplied to the Ministry for its testing stations.
