Since its market launch in 2015, the manufacturer-independent PFREUNDT WK60 weighing electronics with touch display have been at the heart of PFREUNDT’s mobile weighing solutions. Now the company is further developing the electronics, thereby significantly reducing the assembly effort.
PFREUNDT’s product portfolio includes mobile weighing solutions suitable for every operational process and machine type in the extraction, disposal and recycling, agricultural and industrial sectors. The core of the solutions is the WK60 series, which includes the four weighing electronics versions WK60-XS, -Smart, -S and the WK60. Depending on the customer’s requirements, the basic scope of the scale is determined by selecting the appropriate WK60 variant, e.g. with regard to calibration capability. Optional additional functions, such as the provision of further interfaces, allow the weighing electronics to be tailored to individual requirements and operating processes.
As part of the market launch of the WK60 Easy Installation, the further developed WK60 series, the weighing electronics are from now on pre-calibrated to order at the Südlohn family-owned company’s factory prior to delivery. By preselecting the construction machine manufacturer and model, they are automatically filled with machine data relevant for the installation and adjustment of the weighing system. This simplifies and speeds up installation at the customer’s site and, under certain conditions and at the customer’s request, even allows the weighing system to be installed by the customer. “With our WK60, we have always ensured maximum flexibility for the customer thanks to a large number of additional functions that can be added and the possibility of flexibly retrofitting the weighing electronics at any time. This now extends to the installation of our weighing systems: because with the WK60 Easy Installation, the installation effort is reduced enormously, machine downtimes are significantly reduced – saving time and money,” says Markus Fieber, software developer and project manager of the PFREUNDT WK60 Easy Installation.
With the WK60 Easy Installation, PFREUNDT is focusing its product portfolio more strongly on international markets. This further development is particularly interesting for the international agencies through which PFREUNDT is active in more than 30 markets worldwide. In line with its long-term corporate strategy, PFREUNDT is thus laying the foundation for a stronger push in its international markets.
