Frequently Asked Questions

What is LoadMaxx®?
LoadMaxx® is the industry’s most popular on-board scale designed for medium and heavy duty trucks and tractors. LoadMaxx® works on straight trucks, tractors, and can be used as a straight truck solution or as part of the LoadMaxx® / LoadMaxx Plus® tractor trailer solution.  Straight trucks will show steer, drive, GVW and net payload on the in-cab display.  When LoadMaxx® is paired with a trailer equipped with LoadMaxx Plus® scales, trailer suspension weight is automatically added to the LoadMaxx® in-cab display with no driver intervention.

How does LoadMaxx® work
LoadMaxx® uses highly engineered sensors to measure air pressure (for air ride suspensions) or micro-flexing of axles (for mechanical suspensions). By calibrating the system with an empty weight entered at the time the vehicle is empty and loaded weight entered at the time the vehicle  is loaded, the LoadMaxx® algorithm calculates and displays the current weights of the suspension group(s).

The scale must be calibrated before initial use. After calibration, simply view Steer, Drive, GVW and Net Payload (with LoadMaxx Plus®) on the in-cab display, the LoadMaxx app on a smart device, or in integration telematics software. The weight data will update in real time.

How often do I need to recalibrate LoadMaxx®?
Generally, once you've calibrated LoadMaxx® with accurate empty and loaded weights, there's no need for recalibration. The system will continue to provide accurate weight readings. If the suspension undergoes significant damage, wear & tear, or changes such as replacing a leveling valve or air bag, a new recalibration is recommended.

For additional details, please visit our website for calibration manuals here: https://www.air-weigh.com/calibration-manuals/

How long is the average LoadMaxx® installation?
Installation time varies depending on the configuration of air or mechanical suspensions.   However, an average LoadMaxx® installation on an air ride suspension is 2-3 hours or 4-5 hours with mechanical.

What is the LoadMaxx® Plus scale and how does it work with LoadMaxx®?
LoadMaxx Plus® is a scale designed for trailers with either air or mechanical suspensions. LoadMaxx Plus® can be used as a stand-alone trailer scale, but when combined with a LoadMaxx® for tractors, the combined system offers a complete vehicle solution showing steer, drive, GVW, trailer suspensions and net payload data on one single in-dash display.

Pairing for drop & hook is automatic between tractors equipped with LoadMaxx® and trailers equipped with LoadMaxx Plus®.

PEOPLE SAY THE NICEST THINGS

Mike VanderPloeg
Operations Supervisor

With EVs, the cars are getting heavier. With every electrification point of a vehicle, it’s 200 to 300 more pounds vs. a gas version. A hybrid is 200 to 300 pounds more than the gas car and a full EV is another 200 to 300 pounds. That makes these scales all the more critical.

We use Air-Weigh scales to ensure that we pick up a full load every time. In fact, the first big haul after we installed them paid for the scales! I also like the peace of mind of knowing we won’t get an overweight ticket.
