Cardinal Scale’s mobile Weight Wrangler group animal scales provide a self-contained NTEP legal-for-trade weighing system that can be used on any firm surface with up to a 5% grade. The livestock scales include an integral air pump to easily lift and lower the trailer’s air bag suspension. Models come in 18-ft-long tandem axle or 13-ft-long single axle sizes. The X-lug rubberized component deck and steel cattle pen enclosure with dual gates are all suspended at four points within a mobile base frame. The Weight Wrangler can weigh groups of cattle up to 15-20 head at a time (20,000 lb capacity). The scale includes a weight indicator, ticket printer, USB port, battery, self-adjusting electric brakes, and adjustable hitch height. Solar panels are optional.
LSM series scales include high-quality X-lug flooring standard, which is the the livestock industry standard rubber floor for cattle handling. There is allocated open spacing between X-lug floor boards, which allows for easy wash out of scale after use. Other mobile and livestock scales on the market use a corrugated metal floor with a cover rubber mat, allowing livestock sewage to be trapped which leads to extensive rust damage.
Ideal for the ranching industry, the durable steel cattle pens are UV-protected with baked-on industrial tan powder paint for long-lasting endurance in the elements. The LSM’s 15” trailer tires with semi-grade airbag suspension provide smooth towing and handling during transportation. The load cell junction box with additional condensation protection is located inside the battery box for easy access.
