Axtec (Axle Weight Technology Ltd) is an independent British company providing a range of products which combat vehicle overloading. It claims to be the only British manufacturer specialising exclusively in axle weighing and has built a reputation for innovative and effective solutions to overloading problems.
Axtec offers a full range of systems to maximise legal utilisation of vehicles, including dynamic, on-board, portable and static axle weighing systems and examples will be on display at CV Show 2012.
The Axtec 4000 Dynamic Weighbridge has been awarded two test certificates: for accuracy to within 0.5% and to within 0.25%. Axtec has been the principal contractor to VOSA since 1966, supplying calibration, testing and maintenance equipment to the majority of the national enforcement network of 67 roadside weighbridges.
