Wayne Ranger – D.F. Ranger & Sons
“We have been using Bowmonk`s Smartweigh On-Board Weighing systems for the last 10 years or so and they are still all performing well. The level of accuracy is well within the acceptable tolerance. Chris came to install the initial system, and we were so impressed at how easy it was to install and how well it performed, we have since purchased a number of them to install on the rest of our fleet.”

Livestock Haulier RT Nelson
RT Nelson have one of the largest fleets of livestock trailers in the South East. Because they collect their payload in weight and not volume, it is important for them to be as accurate as possible. In this industry, guesswork is not an option as this could mean losing thousands of pounds over time. RT Nelson`s Transport Manager Jon Symons says “We would have to load our trailers with livestock, drive to a weighbridge to establish the payload weight, deliver to the customer and then drive back to the weighbridge to establish the dropped weight. This procedure was necessary for every drop. Very costly and time-consuming. After some research we found a system from Bowmonk-Tapley that suited our needs perfectly. We can now start our day knowing the payload, make the first drop and note the payload difference on the in-cab display and print the values to verify the dropped payload weight for the customer on the in-cab thermal printer. After trialling on one unit & trailer, we were confident enough to outfit other combinations”.

Dan Rees – West Wales
“We needed a trailer weighing system to monitor our gross trailer weight when transporting product from field to farm. After researching what was available to us, we decided on the Smartweigh system from Bowmonk for its robustness and degree of accuracy. This worked so well for us, we have now ordered a second system.”

Norman Yusaf – One Clear Ltd
“To ensure we were compliant whilst maximising our payload capacity, we decided to install axle load monitoring systems on our 3.5T vans. After researching what was available to us we decided the system we considered to be the most appropriate to suit our requirements was the Smartweigh 350 from Bowmonk as the functionality suited our operation well. The system looked easy enough to install and calibrate, so we facilitated this ourselves. We are very pleased with our purchase and are considering installing them on the remainder of our fleet.”
