Using BinMaxx
Getting Accurate Weight Readings
BinMaxx measures weight while the bin is in motion, during a
window of time we refer to here as the measurement zone. The
measurement zone is the time and distance between when the bin
leaves the ground and when it reaches its highest point before it is
emptied into the truck. It usually begins when the forks are about 50
inches from the ground and ends when they are about 100 inches
from the ground. However, the measurement zone can vary by 10
to 15 inches on either end. See the BinMaxx Installation Guide for
more information on determining your measurement zone. When
you are using BinMaxx, you should be aware of the measurement
zone to get the most accurate readings. Refer to the following list to
use BinMaxx accurately.
Do
• Provide as smooth and consistent a lift and drop as possible
while the bin is travelling through the measurement zone.
Do Not
• Pause during a lift or drop.
• Try to arrange or shift the bin load while the bin is in motion.
BinMaxx will update the lift number and net weight soon after the
bin has dropped below the low proximity switch measurement area.
