1. Overview: Why Lorry Overloading Must Be Controlled

Lorry overloading continues to be one of the most critical issues affecting Malaysia’s road safety, transport efficiency, and infrastructure lifespan. Overloaded trucks may appear to provide short-term cost savings, but the long-term consequences are far more damaging:

• Rapid deterioration of highways, bridges, and ports

• Brake failure and increased accident risk

• Excessive tyre wear, vehicle breakdowns

• Higher fuel consumption and maintenance costs

• Heavy penalties from JPJ, JKR, PDRM, and local authorities

As one of Malaysia’s most established weighing solution providers, Sin Huat Hin Machinery (M) Sdn Bhd is committed to providing an end-to-end approach to help companies prevent overloading through accurate weighing, digital monitoring, automation, training, and compliance systems.

3. Our Six Core Solutions Against Overloading

1. High-Accuracy Weighbridges & Weighing Hardware

Weighbridge Malaysia, Truck Scale Supplier, Industrial Weighing System

We supply a full range of certified vehicle weighing systems:

• Steel Deck Weighbridge

• Concrete Pit-Mounted Weighbridge

• Portable Axle Weigher

• Static & Dynamic Weighing (Weigh-In-Motion WIM)

• Conveyor Belt Scale Systems

• Automatic Bulk Scale (ABS-HF)

• Hopper & Silo Weighing

• Forklift Weighing Scale

Our weighbridges are engineered to maintain ±0.1% accuracy, ensuring reliable and enforceable weight control. With higher accuracy, the risk of legal disputes, compliance violations, and penalty fines drops drastically.

2. Digital Weighing Management System (WMS)

 Weighing Software Malaysia, Weighbridge Automation, Anti-Overloading System

Our WMS system integrates seamlessly with:

• ERP (SAP / Oracle / SQL-based systems)

• Logistics platforms

• Gate automation

• Barcode/RFID systems

• Cloud database

• Auto print & e-ticketing

Core Functions:

This eliminates human error, manipulation, and manual data entry issues.

3. Calibration, Certification & Preventive Maintenance

A large percentage of overweight cases occur due to inaccurate equipment, not intentional abuse.

We offer:

• Accredited calibration

• Load cell inspections

• Indicator accuracy verification

• Structural integrity checks

• Weight test reports for JPJ/JKR compliance

With proper calibration intervals, your weighbridge maintains consistent accuracy over years of heavy usage.

4. Unmanned 24/7 Weighbridge System

We design complete unmanned weighbridge stations using:

• ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition)

• RFID / QR or Smart Card Access

• Automated Ticket Dispenser

• Remote CCTV Monitoring

• Auto Gate Arm

• Voice assistance

Perfect for:

• Palm oil mills

• Wood factories

• Steel and scrap yards

• Mining & quarry

• Ports and logistic hubs

Unmanned automation ensures strict compliance without staffing issues or manipulation risks.

5. Safety, Compliance & Driver Awareness Training

Industry observations show that lack of awareness is one of the leading causes of overloading.

We conduct:

• Driver loading safety training

• Factory SOP development

• Load distribution education

• Regulatory compliance briefings

A well-trained workforce prevents expensive mistakes.

6. Overloading Policy Consultation & System Engineering
