There’s been a lot of hype recently around the issue of speed in volumetric load scanning. Some suppliers love to show trucks moving rapidly under their scanners, often backed up by sped-up footage that looks slick on a website. The implied promise is simple: faster must be better.
Load volume scanning is fast becoming the industry standard in sectors reliant of shifting bulk material. Mining, civil construction, landscape product supply, and quarrying are all turning to volumetric scanning due to its high level of accuracy and ability to provide information-rich reports and traceability. Traditional methods of determining truck load volumes — including converting from weight, counting loader buckets, or simply counting trucks — are inaccurate and open for dispute. Loadscan (the company that pioneered load volume scanning) systems are proven accurate to +/-1%.
