MTW – Mobile Train Weigher
MTW – Mobile Train Weigher (Trakblaze Indonesia)
Portable, Accurate & Fast Train Weighing — Anytime, Anywhere
The MTW (Mobile Train Weigher) is Trakblaze’s most flexible and portable train weighing solution, engineered for static and in‑motion weighing across Indonesia’s rail, mining, industrial, and maintenance environments.
Unlike traditional weighbridges, the MTW is lightweight, transportable, and installs in just 10–15 minutes with no track downtime, no civil works, and no rail modifications required.
Take the scale directly to the train and weigh any wagon, locomotive, or rail vehicle with unmatched convenience and accuracy.
For operations requiring even greater speed and precision, the MTW can be upgraded to the MTW‑MS (Multiple Systems) enabling higher‑speed weighing and assisting with track leveling and train balancing.
