Rugged designs for durability

METTLER TOLEDO rail scales offer rugged designs for durability in numerous configurations, combined with advanced POWERCELL^® weighing technology for lasting reliability and high accuracy.

Rail scale systems are available for static weighing, and for weighing rail cars that are coupled together and in-motion. Coupled-in-motion (CIM) rail weighing provides the ability to weigh multiple rail cars and entire trains in a fraction of the time.

Improve performance of your rail scales

METTLER TOLEDO also offers combination scales designed to weigh both rail cars and over-the-road trucks on a single scale.

Custom-engineered rail solutions can meet the needs of large or special projects with unique requirements for configurations and integration.

Upgrades are also available to improve the performance of existing rail scales. This can include converting older mechanical lever-style rail scales to modern load cell systems as a cost-effective alternative to a new scale.
