Truck scales ESSMANN HE-SFK underfloor
The HE-SFK inground truck scale from ESSMANN | Waagen & Automation is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a robust, durable and verifiable truck scale. Developed for the highest demands in industry, agriculture and logistics, it impresses with its sophisticated design, durability and simple commissioning.
Precast concrete parts for fast installation
The HE-SFK is supplied as a complete system with prefabricated foundations and bridge modules made of high-quality concrete. The standard size of the bridge is 18 × 3 meters, but can be individually adapted from 8 to 30 meters long and 3 to 4.5 meters wide as required. Variants with side upstands or in WHG design are also possible.
A decisive advantage: the truck scales can be supplied with a reinforced base plate, eliminating the need for costly on-site concrete work such as clean-out layers or strip foundations.
Robust construction – permanently precise
The truck scales can be driven over lengthways and crossways, are resistant to frost and de-icing salt and are designed for many years of continuous operation thanks to their high abrasion resistance. Galvanized edge protection brackets with integrated bumper mounts and transport anchors provide additional stability and durability.
A drainage connection and a cable bushing are integrated into the foundation. The scales are easy to maintain and clean via accessible access openings (Ø 60 cm) – ideal for harsh operating conditions.
Technology that connects
The HE-SFK complies with all relevant DIN standards, PTB specifications and OIML guidelines and can be calibrated in accordance with accuracy class III with a numerical step of 0.005 t to 0.02 t. The load capacity reaches up to 60 t, with an overload safety of 200 %. Protection classes up to IP69K are possible.
Fully integrated: barriers, terminals & software
The HE-SFK is compatible with numerous peripheral components from the ESSMANN portfolio – from self-service terminals (e.g. MXXL) to license plate recognition license plate recognitionbarrier and traffic light control systems to the yard management software with ERP connection.
Individual customer projects show how versatile the HE-SFK is – whether at airports (e.g. Lufthansa Technik), sewage treatment plants (Hamburg Wasser, BWB) or waste disposal yards (Veolia, Hohenlohekreis).
Optional: WHG or ATEX version
A WHG version in accordance with the DAfStb guideline is available for use with water-polluting substances. Operation in ATEX zones (1/21 and 2/22) is also possible – naturally with the corresponding peripherals in explosion-proof design.

Modules for your truck scales
Control column HE-MXXL
With a height of 2.8m, the control column for our driver self-service terminal offers a large and customizable installation area of 310mm x 2000mm. It is suitable for all types of vehicles, from cars to trucks. Thanks to its large installation depth, the control column provides a universal platform for customer-specific installations such as weighing terminals, terminal PCs, printers, card and/or barcode readers, hands-free telephones, video surveillance and more. The control column consists of an aluminum housing and a stainless steel base designed for durability. The front features a retractable front panel and a plug-in door that is secured by a lock. The control column is available in different colors.
As a DELL partner, we offer you PCs, monitors and printers and install our proven EWP weighing software.
Network cameras for photo documentation during weighing and for license plate recognition.
Thanks to ANPR technology, license plates can be recorded automatically. This allows us to reliably identify vehicles that are already registered or visitor vehicles in the yard. The recorded data is automatically compared with our EWP weighing software and the weighing screen is immediately filled in with the corresponding master data of the license plate.
Vehicle position detection
For monitoring the correct vehicle position on the weighbridge using sensors
Handsfree telephone
The industry standard consists of three modules with up to four call buttons for connection to a telephone system. The call button can be assigned a fixed call number that is dialed when the button is pressed. A door opener connected to a control contact of the hands-free telephone can be confirmed by entering a code number from the inside (on the called party’s telephone). The telephone has two such control contacts and can be used for any purpose. It is installed ready for connection in our self-service terminal or in an optimally available pedestal.
Built-in barcode scanner
HE-GFS
Our barcode reader for installation in our self-service terminals can read common 1D (barcodes) and 2D (QR) codes. The data is converted into an interface format and transmitted to the higher-level input terminal or computer system via the interface. To guarantee reliable scanning performance, the module is housed in a housing sealed with high-grade resin, making it compliant with industrial standards. The reader features patented technology that visually indicates successful code capture to the user, minimizing errors by the driver during self-service.

The combination and customization options are practically limitless. Let our experienced scale manufacturers advise you and they will be happy to help you make the right decision.
Manufacturer calibration of the HE-SFK underfloor truck scales
After craning in and installing the underfloor truck scale, we adjust it with weights at its place of use and bring it into a legal-for-trade condition. Our team then calibrates it for the first time using calibration weights and it can then be used immediately in legal-for-trade applications. This process is called manufacturer calibration or conformity assessment procedure called.
