Mitsubishi Fuso Trucks are known globally for their durability, fuel economy, and versatility in a wide range of commercial operations. Whether you’re running a nimble Canter for local deliveries, a robust Fighter for medium-duty haulage, or a powerful Shogun for heavy loads, every kilogram counts—and every axle needs to stay compliant.

Enter Loadsense, a trusted name in onboard truck and trailer weighing system. Loadsense offers a cost-effective truck scale for Fuso vehicles and a reliable solution for real-time axle group monitoring and bulk load weight tracking, tailored specifically for Fuso trucks operating with either mechanical spring or air suspension systems.

    • Combination sensor kits for dual-suspension configurations.

    • Supports steer, drive, and trailer axle weight tracking.

    • Optimised for rigid + trailer setups and regional distribution routes.


🏗️ Fuso Shogun (Heavy-Duty)

  • Suspension: Available in full air ride, mechanical spring, or mixed axle layouts.

  • Applications: Long-haul freight, bulk haulage, tippers, construction, tankers.

  • Loadsense Fitment:

    • Heavy-duty air pressure sensors and load sensors for demanding applications.

    • Ideal for 6×4, 8×4, PBS-approved, and multi-axle combinations.

    • Delivers real-time GVM and GCM data to avoid overload breaches.


Key Benefits of Loadsense for Fuso Trucks

✅ Axle Group Weight Monitoring

  • Measures steer, drive, trailer, and tag axles separately.

  • Keeps each axle group compliant with legal limits.

  • Reduces risk of suspension damage, braking issues, and fines.

✅ Total Load Visibility (GVM/GCM)

  • Displays real-time gross vehicle and combination mass.

  • Enables maximum legal payload without weighbridge visits.

  • Ideal for Fuso trucks hauling freight, aggregates, liquids, and more.

✅ Wireless or Wired Options

  • RF wireless systems avoid Bluetooth dropouts and ensure reliability.

  • Available with in-dash, external, or handheld displays.

  • Can integrate with telematics or dispatch systems for larger fleets.


Ideal for a Wide Range of Industries

Loadsense systems on Fuso trucks are perfect for:

  • 🛠️ Trades and service fleets (Canter)

  • 🚚 Local freight and food logistics (Fighter)

  • 🏗️ Construction, quarry, and linehaul (Shogun)

  • ♻️ Refuse and waste management

  • 🐄 Agricultural, livestock, and tanker operations

Whether operating solo or as part of a national fleet, Loadsense ensures you load legally and profitably—every trip.


Installation & Support

  • 🔧 Mobile install services across New Zealand and Australia

  • 🧰 Tailored kits for new trucks or retrofits

  • 📐 Calibrated to suit Fuso chassis and axle configurations

  • ☎️ Ongoing technical support and legal compliance documentation


Matching the sensor to your Fuso’s suspension

Canter, Fighter and Shogun trucks cover light, medium and heavy duty, and their suspension changes with each. Loadsense uses a different sensor for each type, all feeding the same Integrator:

  • Air suspension: wireless or wired air pressure sensors read the pressure in the airbags and convert it to axle group weight.
  • Leaf spring suspension: a rotary height sensor measures how far the spring compresses as load goes on, once calibrated.
  • Highest accuracy: loadcells mounted between the chassis and deck.
  • Tippers: a hydraulic pressure transducer weighs using the pressure in the hoist ram.

The Integrator takes up to 8 sensors, so an air-suspended Fuso towing a spring-suspension trailer can run both on one system and show truck, trailer and axle group weights in the Loadsense app.
