Bhavnagar weighbridges for ship plates, salt and onions.
Bhavnagar weighs steel by the shipload: plates from the Alang–Sosiya ship-recycling yard feed the re-rolling mills of Sihor and Bhavnagar, salt works line the coast and Mahuva dries onions for export. Symphony supplies weighbridges across Bhavnagar district, with decks chosen for heavy plate, brine and sea air.
For an Alang ship-recycling plot, an 80–100 MT weighbridge with a 16–18 m steel-cum-RCC or concrete (RCC) deck weighs heavy plate trailers; Sihor re-rolling mills usually need 60–80 MT on a 16 m pit-less deck, and coastal salt works a concrete (RCC) deck against brine. Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad, with Legal Metrology stamping support.
On the Gulf of Khambhat, decks built for sea air.
- Heavy plate, heavy decks80–100 MT decks for ship-plate trailers, so the heaviest loads stay well inside the capacity.
- Built for the coastConcrete (RCC) and steel-cum-RCC decks resist salt air and brine; sealed IP67/IP68 load cells keep moisture out.
- Accuracy for the steel tradeClass III (OIML R76) weighing and stamping support, because plates and scrap are bought and sold by the tonne.
Who needs one in Bhavnagar: Ship recycling at Alang–Sosiya, steel re-rolling mills in Sihor and Bhavnagar, salt works and marine chemicals along the coast, onion dehydration in Mahuva, plastics and engineering units in the Chitra and Vartej GIDC estates, and the port at Bhavnagar.
Also called a dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा), truck scale or weigh bridge. We also serve Sihor, Alang, Mahuva, Ghogha, Palitana.
Alang plates, Sihor bars and Mahuva onions.
Ship-recycling plots (Alang–Sosiya)
Plates, sections and scrap leave the plots on heavy trailers, every load sold by weight, in salty sea air.
Our setup: An 80–100 MT, 16–18 m steel-cum-RCC or concrete (RCC) deck with sealed IP67/IP68 load cells, stamped for trade.
Re-rolling mills (Sihor and Bhavnagar)
Ship plate and scrap in, bars and sections out; mills buy and sell on weight every day.
Our setup: A 60–80 MT, 16 m pit-less deck with SMFW records that tie each weighment to its purchase or dispatch.
Onion dehydration (Mahuva)
In the onion season, farmers' tractors and traders' trucks arrive together, and each lot is paid on weight.
Our setup: A 40–60 MT, 12–16 m pit-less deck with fast slip printing, so the onion-season queue keeps moving.

Salt air eats paint. Concrete copes better.
The coast is the challenge here. Salty sea air and brine attack painted steel decks and welds, so on Alang plots, salt works and coastal yards a concrete (RCC) or steel-cum-RCC deck lasts longer: the same steel-cum-RCC design we supplied to Sambhar Salts in Rajasthan (3 × 100 MT, 16 × 3 m). Ship plates and scrap change hands by the tonne, so Class III accuracy and a stamped weighbridge protect both buyer and seller. Inland, the Sihor mills need speed and records more than corrosion protection.
| Recommended for | Vehicles | Capacity | Deck | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ship-recycling plot (Alang) | Plate and scrap trailers | 80–100 MT | 16–18 m | Steel-cum-RCC or concrete (RCC) |
| Re-rolling mill (Sihor) | Scrap trucks, multi-axle trucks | 60–80 MT | 16 m | Pit-less steel |
| Salt works (coast) | Tippers, multi-axle trucks | 60 MT | 16 m | Concrete (RCC) / steel-cum-RCC |

From Alang enquiry to a coast-ready deck.
Six steps for your project in Bhavnagar. Most of the waiting is the foundation curing, so the drawing comes first.
- 1 · Your traffic in BhavnagarTell us the heaviest vehicle you weigh (here, typically plate and scrap trailers), the space at the gate and the daily count. An engineer replies within one working day.
- 2 · Size and quotationOur usual starting point (ship-recycling plot (Alang)): 80–100 MT, 16–18 m deck, Steel-cum-RCC or concrete (RCC). The quotation comes with the foundation drawing.
- 3 · Foundation on siteYour civil contractor builds the concrete pedestals to our drawing; we can check the levels before the deck arrives.
- 4 · Fabrication and dispatchBuilt and tested in our Ahmedabad workshop; dispatch in about 2 weeks from a commercially cleared order with PO, then delivered and placed on your foundation.
- 5 · Installation and calibrationDeck placed, load cells and indicator connected and calibrated, slip printing set up, and Legal Metrology verification supported.
- 6 · AMC and serviceAMC, breakdown visits, calibration and annual re-verification support from our technical desk, so the weighbridge stays accurate for years.
