In 2010, Roslin needed an onboard weighing solution for their vacuum trucks, which are used to collect grease and cooking oil. The company refines and purifies these products, then ships them to the United States for use in the biodiesel industry.
The first attempt at an onboard scale came in the form of an air-bag sensor kit mounted to the truck suspension. “It was something we found on the Internet,” says Scott Dennis, co-owner of Roslin Enterprises. “We installed the air pressure system but it never worked right. The weights were all over the place. We learned very quickly that a better solution
was needed so we went to Brian Taylor [owner of Teeterville Garage and Weighing Systems] and he recommended Precision Loads.”
The first Precision Loads system worked so well that Roslin Enterprises has installed it on the rest of their fleet. “Every truck that we buy from now on, we just put it on. It’s not even a discussion,” Scott says. “They work really well and we’ve never had any problems at all. Today, I couldn’t imagine our trucks without them.”
