Brids reduce loading time with tipper technology and commit to trialling new Wi-Fi weighing system



Brids Ltd is one of the largest operators in the Sheffield and Chesterfield area for tipper hire as well as aggregate supply. They have worked on numerous large-scale and long-term projects, from motorways and utilities to civil engineering and rail projects. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, Brids Ltd is also proud to have a solid network of government approved waste disposal points.

Over the past 10 years, Brids Ltd has built a strong and trusting relationship with Vehicle Weighing Solutions. Brids Ltd has chosen to fit all of their trucks with the high-accuracy six load cell weighing system - LOADWEIGH FOR TIPPERS from VWS, complemented by the ‘VWS remote display’ to allow the operator to view the weight data without having to be inside of the cab. The benefit of this is a reduction in time spent loading or unloading product and overall allows for a smoother running of operations.

With the recent launch of the new WiFi Weighing solution from VWS, Brids have committed to a trial of the innovative technology to assess the operational benefits. The WiFi INDICATOR will negate the need for a second remote slave display in any of their tippers. Operators will then be able to access live transactional data from the vehicle via any device connected to the internet, including a mobile phone or tablet, as the WiFi INDICATOR integrates with the online portal VWS Live.

Vehicle Weighing Solutions are pleased to announce that all new VWS underbody weighing systems will now have a full 36-month warranty on the load cells. This can then be extended by having an annual service and calibration check on the weighing system for either an annual upfront cost or a monthly direct debit payment.
