DAF Trucks have long been a trusted name in the global transport industry, known for their reliability, performance, and innovation. Whether operating in New Zealand, Australia, the USA, Canada, the UK, or Europe, fleet managers and owner-operators alike rely on DAF’s diverse range of models for heavy haulage, general freight, and regional deliveries. With ever-tightening road compliance laws and the constant pressure to operate efficiently, having a reliable Truck Scale is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Loadsense Scales: The Smart Choice for DAF Operators
Loadsense offers a cost-effective, functional, and easy-to-use onboard weighing solution designed specifically to meet the demands of modern transport operators. Whether your DAF Trucks are equipped with Air Bag Suspension or Mechanical Spring Suspension, Loadsense has the right weighing sensor to deliver precision, compliance, and peace of mind.

DAF Truck Models & Suspension Compatibility

DAF’s wide lineup includes models such as:

  • DAF LF (Lightweight distribution trucks)

  • DAF CF (Multipurpose, regional haulage)

  • DAF XF (Long haul, high-capacity freight)

  • DAF XG & XG+ (Next-gen long-distance trucks)

  • DAF Electric Series (Emerging zero-emission fleets)

Each of these models comes with a variety of suspension configurations based on their application:

  • Air Bag Suspension Systems (common in CF, XF, XG/XG+)

  • Mechanical Spring Suspension (still used in LF and some older CF/XF configurations)

  • Multi-axle and trailer combinations with varying suspension types

Custom Sensor Solutions for Every Suspension Type

1. Air Bag Suspension Weighing

Loadsense uses high-performance air pressure sensors that integrate directly into the truck and trailer’s air suspension system. These sensors measure pressure changes, translating them into accurate weight readings without disrupting the vehicle’s performance.

Features:

  • Compatible with all DAF trucks and most trailers with air suspension

  • Wireless RF technology (not Bluetooth) for superior reliability

  • Quick installation and minimal downtime

  • Ideal for both rigid and articulated combinations

2. Mechanical Spring Suspension Scales

For DAF trucks and trailers with leaf spring or parabolic spring suspension, Loadsense offers axle deflection-based load sensors. These robust sensors measure the flex or displacement of the suspension under load and are ideal for rugged, off-road, or older vehicle applications.

Features:

  • Heavy-duty sensor design for extreme conditions

  • Accurate readings for consistent loading

  • Easy retrofitting to existing spring suspension systems

  • Proven in harsh environments across NZ, Australia, and North America
