For industries that depend on accurate weighing—manufacturing, logistics, plantations, agriculture, recycling, mining, palm oil mills, feed mills, and many more—the truck scale (weighbridge) is one of the most important revenue-generating assets of the entire operation.
However, many companies only pay attention to whether the scale can “show weight”, while ignoring the hidden factors that affect long-term accuracy, safety, and durability.
With more than 50 years of experience, Sin Huat Hin Machinery (M) Sdn Bhd has handled thousands of truck scales across Malaysia. We have seen countless cases where companies suffered heavy losses simply because their weighbridges were not serviced regularly:
Weight inaccuracy causing huge daily or monthly financial losses
Rusted steel decks collapsing under heavy trucks
Load cells damaged by water, shock, or lightning
Weighing indicators and electronics malfunctioning due to aging
Failures during JKKP or third-party audits
Customer disputes and legal claims
Because of these reasons, annual service is not optional—it is essential.
A truck scale is exposed to constant stress:
heavy truck impact, daily loading cycles, vibration, dust, rain, sun, and sometimes corrosive materials.
Annual maintenance includes:
Accumulated debris can:
Block movement of the deck
Cause inaccurate readings
Prevent zero return
Stress load cells unevenly
Fatigue cracks or corrosion may cause:
Sudden structural collapse
Dangerous accidents involving trucks
Costly downtime
Because Malaysia has frequent lightning incidents, load cells and indicators are often damaged.
Proper maintenance reduces system downtime and saves replacement cost.
Every electronic measuring device will drift over time.
Truck scale calibration is the only method to verify and restore accuracy.
Even a 1% error can result in huge financial loss when your business handles thousands or millions of kilograms per month.
Such as:
JKKP compliance
ISO audits
Customer inspection requirements
Quality assurance documentation
Accurate data brings trust, stability, and transparency to business operations.
Truck scales are fully exposed to the environment—rainwater, humidity, sunlight, and chemicals.
Rust is the number one cause of major weighbridge structural damage.
Repainting helps with:
Prevents the steel deck from thinning and weakening.
A simple repaint can extend your weighbridge’s lifespan by many years.
Technology evolves quickly, and upgrading your system ensures long-term performance.
Examples include:
Faster processing
More stable readings
Better anti-interference performance
Automatic weight recording
Cloud data
RFID or ANPR camera
Anti-fraud solutions
Upgrading is far more cost-effective than buying a new scale.
A truck scale is a mission-critical asset to your business.

Heavy financial loss
