The Problem: Fleet Fines, Load Rejections, and Guesswork
Know your weight while you load, not after.
Fleets told us the same story: drivers were guessing. Trucks were being turned away for overloads. Dispatchers had no visibility. And every rejected load meant lost time, wasted fuel, fines, and frustrated customers.
The HQ OnBoard Scale by AKTV8 PressureTech™ delivers live, shovel-by-shovel visibility so your fleet never leaves the yard overweight, underloaded, or unsure.

Why This Scale Changes Everything
Air-System Smart Sensor
Uses the pressure already in a truck’s air suspension, a full TPMS kit is not required. Reads instantly with each movement of the suspension and broadcasts wirelessly to the AKTV8 Pressure Tech App and Fleet office.
Fleet Profiles
Once you calibrate one truck, copy its profile to similar rigs. Deployment becomes copy and paste, fast, consistent, and technician friendly across the fleet.
Real Time Montoring
Watch live weight as the truck loads, one bucket, fork, or shovel at a time. Ideal for waste, aggregates, construction, municipal fleets, and more.
Accuracy & Durability
Independently tested within ±2% of certified truck scales. Water resistent, shock resistent, extreme temperature rated, and ready for harsh, daily fleet environments.
