Cross Zlin keeps all options open

Freedom of choice is what the modular CrossWIM weigh-in-motion system from the Czech manufacturer Cross Zlin is all about. Freedom to choose an application for the Cross Zlin system and freedom to choose what road weighing sensors you use from five or more other manufacturers if desired.

Agencies and authorities are no longer bound by previous sensor choices in order to upgrade and expand their existing systems, said Vaclav Blahnik, product manager for telematics with Cross Zlin. Importantly, variability is enhanced by accurate evaluation of temperature-compensated sensor signals, based on installed temperature sensors under the road surface.

Typical accessories include licence plate recognition, vehicle size measurement, variable message sign operation, and overview cameras. Also, if greater precision of measurement is needed for direct enforcement – weighing accuracy to around 5 per cent is gained by adding skewed piezo thresholds.

The weigh in motion market remains especially buoyant and technological development continues to reflect this. Although there are major differences in operating philosophies, particularly between developed and developing countries, both the numbers of countries using Weigh In Motion (WIM) technology and the numbers of systems that they deploy are on the increase.
