The segment details the production of a <a title="70 foot truck scales" href="http://truck.centralcarolinascale.com/Cardinal-EPR-Truck-Scale.htm">70-foot-long electronic Cardinal truck scale</a>. Beginning on a microscopic level with the creation of the strain gauges that reside in the scale&#8217;s load cells, the educational program charts the manufacturing course of a Cardinal model EPR truck scale. It proceeds to show the welding processes involved in the steel tubing and load cell stands, the powder paint process, and final assembly where the finished truck scale is shown with test weights being applied to measure its superb accuracy.</p>
<p>The episode first aired in November 2008 and will be translated into over 3 dozen different languages to be shown internationally. One of the reasons Cardinal was asked to participate on the show was worldwide brand name <span id="more-19"></span>recognition, the wide-ranging scale line the company manufactures in the United States, ISO-9001:2000 certification, and the company&#8217;s unique ability to manufacture all aspects of the scale in-house, from the strain gauge and load cells to the finished scale itself. Reduce Risk With Single Source Manufacturing. When you purchase a truck scale it is important to consider availability and warranty concerning ALL the product’s components. Cardinal Scale produces and warranties every component in the scale including the load cells, electronic junction boxes and the weight instrument. All of this gives you, the buyer, the minimum risk in a long term investment. For Cardinal Truck Scale availability and pricing, contact the heavy capacity sales department at <a title="truck scales north carolina" href="http://www.centralcarolinascales.com">Central Carolina Scale</a> in Sanford, NC.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Until the early 1970s, all <a title="truck scales" href="http://truck.centralcarolinascale.com">truck scales</a> were mechanical and installed in expensive concrete pits. Today, most heavy vehicle scales are installed above ground or in concrete pits with slab type foundations. With the benefit of new modular construction, scales can also be installed in a shallow pit, as opposed to the deep pit required by older mechanical scales.</p>
<p>One of the biggest reasons for choosing a pit type installation is space – or lack of it. A pit installation requires less space than a pitless installation due to the approaches, as sloped approaches to grade are generally required for pitless foundations. However, pit type scales require sump pumps and drains, and are more vulnerable to accelerated rust and corrosion due to the potential of standing water in the pit.</p>
