Every day, container truck operators across the globe face the same silent stress:

You’ve picked up a loaded 20-foot or 40-foot container. You don’t know how it’s packed. You don’t know if the weight is balanced. But you do know one thing you’re about to roll out onto roads monitored by axle weight sensors, enforcement officers, or port authorities.

The uncertainty of axle group weights is a risk you shouldn’t have to live with.

That’s why operators from North America to Europe, Australia to Africa, the UK to Southeast Asia are turning to Loadsense the world’s most cost-effective, easy-to-install onboard weighing system, designed specifically for scales for swinglift and sidelifter container trucks and trailers.

The Global Challenge: Axle Weight Enforcement is Getting Tougher

Whether you’re in New York, Sydney, Johannesburg, Dubai, Toronto, or London, the transport rules are getting tighter. From bridge formulas and axle group restrictions to road user charging (RUC) and Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) systems governments are cracking down on overloaded axles, and compliance is no longer optional.

For swinglift and sidelifter operators, this brings unique challenges:

  • Containers packed unevenly overseas

  • Last-minute loads without clear manifests

  • Constant variation in axle load due to container positioning

  • Fines, permit violations, or load rejections

Loadsense solves this global pain point, delivering real-time, accurate axle group weights so operators can load with confidence, avoid costly fines, and maintain a reputation for compliance and reliability.

How Loadsense Onboard Scales for Swinglift & Sidelift Container Trailers Work

Loadsense offers two rugged, proven weighing technologies that adapt to your trailer’s suspension type whether air or mechanical.

✅ Air Suspension – Pressure Sensor System

Used on:

  • Modern skeletal trailers

  • Air-ride sidelifter swinglift units

  • B-double, semi-trailer, and articulated container haulers

Loadsense pressure sensors connect directly to your suspension’s air system, reading air pressure and converting it into highly accurate axle group weights.

Key Features:

  • Live data via cab display or smartphone app

  • Easy calibration no weighbridge required

  • Ideal for urban container distribution and intermodal transport

  • Proven globally in container ports and logistics depots

✅ Mechanical Spring Suspension – Axle Deflection Sensors

Common in:

  • Older swinglift trailers

  • Heavy-duty sidelifter units used in rough terrain

  • Rural or low-maintenance regions with non-air suspensions

Loadsense axle deflection sensors measure movement in leaf springs or axles under load to deliver consistent weight data built for rough, real-world conditions.

Key Features:

  • No structural modifications required

  • Fully sealed for harsh weather, dust, and vibration

  • Quick installation and calibration

  • Affordable for small fleets and owner-operators worldwide

Integrated Truck & Trailer Weighing – Total Visibility, Instant Confidence

Whether you’re running:

  • A swinglift or sidelift on a single trailer

  • A container skeletal trailer with multiple axles

  • A 6×4 tractor with tag or steer axles

  • A tri-axle or quad-axle configuration

Loadsense brings all axle data together, providing a complete view of steer, drive, and trailer axle groups, helping you meet compliance in any country, with any configuration.

The Emotional Benefit: Take the Pressure Off the Driver

Drivers carry more than cargo. They carry the responsibility.

They shoulder the stress of fines, delays, and safety concerns even when they didn’t pack the load. Loadsense puts the power back in their hands, letting them make informed decisions about:
