Escenarios de aplicación

• Cattle Crush Weighing

Installed beneath manual or hydraulic cattle crushes, ABH weigh beams deliver consistent results even when animals shift or apply uneven loads.

• Alleyway & Raceway Weighing

Ideal for race-based weighing systems where animals move quickly. The reinforced beam structure minimizes errors caused by side loading and impact.

• Outdoor Farm Weighing

Built for open yards exposed to rain, mud, and manure. Suitable for both permanent installations and mobile weighing platforms.

• Sheep & Pig Weighing Systems

Compact and stable enough for smaller livestock, ensuring accurate data collection for growth tracking and management decisions.

Built for Stability in Livestock Weighing

Unlike industrial weigh beams, ABH weigh beams are developed specifically for livestock behavior:

• Reinforced internal structure resists side loading
• Designed to absorb shock and movement from animals
• Sealed load cell housing prevents water and moisture ingress
• Reliable performance during dynamic weighing conditions

This ensures consistent weight data you can trust for herd management and traceability.

System Compatibility & Integration

ABH weigh beams integrate seamlessly with:

• Livestock weighing indicators
• EID-enabled scale indicators
• Alleyway and crush weighing systems
• Fixed and portable weighing platforms

They can be supplied as part of a complete livestock weighing solution, including indicators, EID readers, and data management support.

Preguntas frecuentes

1. Can I use ABH weigh beams without replacing my existing weighing system?

In some cases, yes. Farms may already have handling facilities or weighing equipment that can continue to be used while upgrading only specific components of the weighing system. Evaluating the existing setup can help determine whether the weigh beams can be integrated into the current setup and what additional equipment may be required.

2. Can ABH load bars be used outdoors?

Yes, powder-coated carbon steel is sufficient for everyday farm and outdoor use. However, for extremely harsh conditions, such as humidity, salt spray, or frequent washing, we recommend ABT hot-dip galvanized load bars. In the long run, this is a better investment.

3. What are the advantages of weigh beams over traditional floor scales?

Las básculas son más flexibles, portátiles y económicas. Se pueden usar en diversas configuraciones, debajo de tolvas, jaulas y plataformas, y se reubican fácilmente, lo cual es ideal para la ganadería.

4. Which weighing indicators can be used with ABH load bars?

ABH weigh beams can be combined with livestock weighing indicators that are suitable for farms. Farms can choose indicators with features such as waterproof protection, electronic identification compatibility, and weight recording. The most suitable indicator usually depends on how the weighing information will be used.

5. Can the mounting holes be customized?

Yes, we can provide different mounting hole positions to suit your existing equipment.
