SHB 2000 kg pallet truck scale for moving and weighing loads

A pallet truck scale combines the functions of a manual pallet truck with an integrated weighing mechanism, allowing operators to move and weigh loads in a single operation. The truck's forks lift the pallet clear of the floor, and the scale measures the weight of the load while it is suspended. This eliminates the need to transfer goods to a separate weighing station, saving time and reducing manual handling in busy catering storage and dispatch areas.

To use the BHS SHB pallet truck scale, the operator slides the forks beneath the pallet, pumps the handle to raise the load just off the ground, and reads the weight displayed on the scale. The measurement is taken while the pallet is in transit, so the same movement that transports the goods also provides the weight data. The scale updates continuously, allowing the operator to confirm the load before moving on.

The SHB model is built as a standard pallet truck with an added weighing module. The frame and forks are constructed from steel, providing the strength needed to lift and support loads up to 2000 kg. The scale mechanism is integrated into the lifting assembly, ensuring the weight reading is taken directly from the load without additional transfer steps.

The scale displays weight in 1 kg increments, allowing precise measurement of ingredients, stock or finished goods. The maximum capacity of 2000 kg matches the typical weight limits of standard pallet trucks, ensuring the scale can handle full pallets of catering supplies without exceeding its design limits.

Cleaning is limited to the external surfaces of the truck and scale. The steel frame and forks can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove dust or spills, while the scale display and controls should be kept dry to prevent moisture from affecting the electronics.

The BHS SHB pallet truck scale is categorised under material handling equipment in the catering logistics section of the catalogue.
