The reliability of an industrial weighing system depends not only on its weighing technology, but also on the mechanical structure supporting the weighing platform and the conditions under which it is manufactured.
At FLINTAB, industrial manufacturing expertise plays an important role in the production of metal structures used in weighing equipment. Through specialized welding, mechanical processing, surface preparation and painting capabilities, FLINTAB manufactures structures designed to meet the technical requirements of industrial, road and railway applications.
Our manufacturing experience, engineering capabilities and quality-control procedures support the development of weighing equipment structures for demanding operating environments.
Steel Structures for Industrial Weighing Applications
Metal structures used in weighing equipment must be manufactured according to precise technical specifications.
Dimensional accuracy, structural quality and compliance with the requirements of the project are important considerations throughout the manufacturing process.
FLINTAB manufactures metal structures for weighing equipment under dedicated quality plans. Dimensional tolerances, tests and verifications are performed according to the requirements of SR EN 1090-2.
Our factory combines several manufacturing processes:
- Welding and fabrication of steel structures
- Mechanical machining
- Abrasive blasting and surface preparation
- Industrial painting
- Manufacturing based on customer drawings and technical projects
These capabilities allow FLINTAB to handle different structural manufacturing requirements for industrial weighing applications.
Engineering and Certified Manufacturing Capabilities
FLINTAB has its own Technical Department, which can develop and implement projects based on the production technologies available within the factory. Manufacturing can also be performed according to technical documentation supplied by the customer.
The factory presentation specifies Bureau Veritas authorization according to EN 1090-1:2009+A1:2011, Execution Class EXC3, certificate number 2129-CPR-0227.
Welding procedures are qualified according to EN ISO 15614-1, while welders hold qualifications issued by Bureau Veritas according to SR EN ISO 9606-1.
With approximately 80 employees, including engineers, mechanics, welders and skilled workers, FLINTAB has an established industrial manufacturing team capable of supporting complex fabrication projects.
Manufacturing Experience Across International Markets
FLINTAB’s experience in metal fabrication extends beyond weighing equipment, covering industrial structures for road, railway, agricultural, construction, energy and marine applications.
Over the years, our manufacturing activities have supported international projects involving companies from Germany, Italy and Norway, among other markets.
Some of the documented production references include:
- Almost 650 tonnes of structures manufactured over six years for BUTTNER Germany.
- More than 20 years of collaboration with Petkus Wutha, producing painted and hot-dip galvanized structures for agricultural equipment.
- Over 1,200 tonnes of metal products manufactured during more than 10 years of collaboration with ACCIAIO 2000 and Micheli Primo in Italy.
- Approximately 300 tonnes of structures manufactured over five years for NOTECH AS Norway.
The experience gained in these projects covers a broad range of steel fabrication requirements, including industrial platforms, support structures, tanks, bunkers, railway bridges and specialized mechanical equipment.
Supporting Truck and Railway Weighing Applications
Truck scales and railway weighing systems require mechanical structures designed around their specific installation and operating requirements.
FLINTAB’s manufacturing capabilities and experience with metal structures for weighing equipment provide an important foundation for these applications.
Our expertise in welded structures, mechanical machining, surface treatment and manufacturing quality control supports the production of metal components according to project specifications.
For international customers and industrial partners, this manufacturing background is an important part of FLINTAB’s approach to developing reliable weighing solutions.
FLINTAB – Industrial Manufacturing Experience Behind Weighing Technology
FLINTAB combines weighing industry experience with in-house industrial manufacturing capabilities.
By controlling important stages of metal structure fabrication and applying documented quality procedures, the company can support the production of weighing equipment structures according to customer requirements.
Whether the application involves road, railway or other industrial weighing installations, manufacturing quality remains an essential part of the complete weighing system.
