The Intercomp high capacity platform scales (Aircraft Platform Scales) offer the highest level of accuracy and reliability for aircraft weight & balance tasks. These systems are ideal for the precise weighing of large, heavy-duty aircraft, ensuring safe operation and compliance with regulations.
Intercomp aircraft scales perform excellently even in the most demanding aviation environments, whether for commercial, military, or private airfields. The platform design guarantees stable and accurate weighing, while advanced displays and software simplify complex calculations.
These high capacity platform scales offer the following key advantages:
Outstanding Capacity: Specifically designed for weighing very heavy aircraft, ensuring the necessary accuracy across a wide range.
Robust Construction: Built from durable, industrial-grade materials that withstand extreme environmental conditions and heavy loads.
High Accuracy: Precision load cells ensure certified measurement results, which are essential for aircraft weight and balance calculations.
Integrated Software Solutions: Compatible with advanced displays and software (e.g., TAC30™ CPU, ACWeigh™) that automate weight and balance calculations.
Modular System: The platforms are easily installable and movable (on certain models), providing flexibility across different hangars and maintenance areas.
Intercomp offers a wide selection of high capacity platform scales to meet the needs of every type of aircraft. Models mainly differ in their maximum load capacity and profile.
These models are ideal for situations where the scale height is a critical factor, but high load capacity is still required.
| Model | Characteristic Capacity | Note |
|---|---|---|
| AC60-LP™ | High Capacity | Low Profile Design |
The standard high capacity solutions that offer maximum stability and accuracy for the heaviest aircraft.
| Model | Characteristic Capacity | Note |
|---|---|---|
| AC30-60™ | High Capacity | Standard Platform Design |
| ACII™ | Full Aircraft Weighing System | Integrated System |
Although the focus is on high capacity, Intercomp's offering also includes solutions covering the full spectrum:
AC15-LP™: Low-Profile, Low Capacity
AC40-LP™: Low-Profile Mid Capacity
The performance of platform scales is significantly influenced by their associated displays, software, and calibration devices.
Reading and recording measurements is done with the following advanced devices:
TAC30™ CPU – Touchscreen Indicator: Modern, user-friendly interface for fast and accurate display of weight data. Capable of performing complex weight and balance calculations.
RFX® Wireless Handheld Indicator: Enables remote, wireless reading of measurement data, increasing flexibility in the work area.
RFX® Wireless AC100™ Aircraft Scale CPU: Special wireless hub that supports integration with AC100™ Jack Weigh systems, but can also be used with platform scales.
ACWeigh™ Software: Professional software for managing, storing weight and balance data, and generating reports.
iACWeigh™: Mobile application-based solution that allows data capture and management via portable devices.
To maintain the accuracy of the scales, Intercomp offers comprehensive calibration and support systems:
CSM™ Manual Test Stand: Reliable device for regular manual checks and calibration.
CSA™ Automated Test Stand: Fully automated calibration system that enables fast and documented accuracy verification.
Although platform scales are the primary products, Intercomp Jack Weigh kits offer an alternative or supplementary weighing solution, especially when platform placement is not ideal:
Jack Weigh AC100™ Kit: High Capacity Jack Scale Kit.
Jack Weigh EZ RFX® Kit: Jack scale kit equipped with wireless technology.
Intercomp's high-capacity platform scales play a critical role in many segments of the aerospace industry:
High Capacity Aircraft Weighing: Ideal for weighing wide-body aircraft, cargo planes, and large business jets.
eVTOL Development: Supports the weight and balance testing of next-generation electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles, where precise weight distribution is essential.
Military Applications: Systems compliant with military specifications (Military Aircraft Scales) ensure the safe operation of combat and transport aircraft.
Weight & Balance Training: The systems can be used for official, certified Weight & Balance Training, ensuring proper personnel preparedness.
Intercomp is committed to the highest quality measurement solutions. During the design of the platform scales, emphasis was placed on long-term reliability and calibration stability. Regular maintenance and the use of official calibration tools (CSA™, CSM™) guarantee that measurement data always complies with strict international aviation regulations.
These high-capacity platform scales are not just measuring devices; they are critical safety components that ensure every takeoff occurs with optimal weight distribution.
