Norbord installs new RMT Equipment wireless grapple scale<br />
In 2010, RMT Equipment introduced North America to the XW family of wireless crane scales <strong>and</strong> grapple scales<br />
developed by Intermercato AB of Sweden.<br />
The company recently completed an installation at a Norbord OSB mill.<br />
Mill management wanted a better idea of the total wood fibre weights that their Tanguay PO460 crane loaded into the<br />
plant’s flaker mill per shift.<br />
Norbord was looking for a solution where it could record precise weights on the grapple without slowing down the<br />
loading process. The proposed solution was the new Intermercato XW Series grapple scale.<br />
Installing the grapple scale required no downtime with two of the PO460 cranes on site. The RMT Equipment technician<br />
completed the actual installation in five hours. The XW Series scale is based on load cell technology that responds to load<br />
stresses quickly <strong>and</strong> accurately. Each unit includes a weigh link <strong>and</strong> a h<strong>and</strong>held remote console that receives load data<br />
wirelessly from the weigh link’s load cell. The weigh link is installed by simply replacing the st<strong>and</strong>ard attachment link on<br />
the crane.<br />
Norbord says it is pleased with the accuracy of the RMT scale.<br />
