Let your system evolve through phases Pallet Masters with integrated weighing system at AviaPartner Cargo in Liège (LGG), Belgium New Air Canada Cargo facility at Pierre Elliot Trudeau Airport, Montréal (YUL), Canada Due to major changes of the facilities at Montréal Airport, a new 16,000 m2 cargo terminal was built in the North Cargo Complex for Air Canada Cargo and put into operation in November 2008.

The Pallet Masters with unique integrated weighing system have been tested in practice under the most adverse conditions and have proven to be most efficient, accurate and reliable. ULD’s on slave pallets are weighed directly after being built so that the weight information can be processed for weight & balance planning well in advance of actual aircraft loading. The weighing system with electronic load cells is designed in such a way that it can not be damaged during typical heavy warehouse usage with risk of frequent collisions.

The weight indicator is powered by the main battery and is fitted with zer
