Bikaner weighbridges for gypsum, groundnut and namkeen.
Bikaner is a trading town of the northern Thar, and its weighbridges carry minerals, food and farm produce. Gypsum and clay are mined across the district and leave by truck for cement, fertiliser and ceramic makers; the town's namkeen, bhujia and papad units buy moth, besan and edible oil by the truckload; woollen and wool-processing units work in the RIICO estates; and the canal-irrigated belt around Lunkaransar, Khajuwala and Chhattargarh grows groundnut, gram, mustard and guar that come to the Bikaner market yard. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta or tol kanta (धर्म कांटा / तौल कांटा) across Bikaner district.
A gypsum or clay mine or trader in Bikaner needs a 60–80 MT weighbridge (dharam kanta) on a 16 m concrete (RCC) deck; a groundnut or grain trader 40–60 MT on a 12–16 m pit-less deck, and a namkeen unit 30–40 MT on 9–12 m. Symphony builds the truck scale in Ahmedabad.
Gypsum is weighed again at the factory gate: make sure your slip matches.
- Foundation on compacted sandOur drawing sets the base, pedestals and approach slabs on a compacted bed, not on loose sand.
- Curing water plannedAn RCC deck and its pedestals need watering while they cure; in a dry yard, plan the water first, or choose pit-less steel to cut the wet work.
- Heavy mineral loadsFully loaded gypsum and clay tippers cross the deck all day, so size the capacity with headroom.
Who needs one in Bikaner: Gypsum and clay mining and trading, namkeen, bhujia and papad units, woollen and wool-processing units, groundnut shelling and decorticating units, guar and gram trade, the Bikaner market yard, and building-material yards in the RIICO estates.
Also called a dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा), truck scale or weigh bridge. We also serve Nokha, Shri Dungargarh, Lunkaransar, Kolayat, Khajuwala, Chhattargarh, Pugal, Bajju, Deshnok, Napasar.
Mines, shelling units and bhujia makers of Bikaner.
Gypsum and clay mines and traders
Gypsum and clay are sold by the tonne to cement, fertiliser and ceramic makers, and the buyer weighs again at the factory gate, so a short weight at the mine turns into a dispute later.
Our setup: A 60–80 MT, 16 m concrete (RCC) deck with sealed IP67/IP68 load cells and deck edges kept clear of spilled gypsum and clay.
Groundnut shelling and decorticating units
Pods come in from the canal belt after harvest, and kernels and shells leave separately, so the unit's yield rests on its inward and outward weights.
Our setup: A 40–60 MT, 16 m pit-less steel deck, with SMFW slips that name the commodity for each truck in and out.
Namkeen, bhujia and papad units
These units buy besan, moth, edible oil and packing material in many small loads from many suppliers, and each one is paid by weight.
Our setup: A 30–40 MT pit-less deck of 9–12 m that fits a tight factory yard, with a slip for every supplier's truck.

Loose sand and little water: plan the base and the curing first.
Most Bikaner yards stand on loose desert sand, so a weighbridge foundation here starts with a properly compacted base built to our drawing, not on the sand as it lies; the pedestals and approach slabs need the same compacted bed, or they settle unevenly. Water is scarce in many yards, and a concrete (RCC) deck and its foundation need regular watering while they cure, so plan the curing water before the work starts, or choose a pit-less steel deck, which needs far less concrete, though its pedestals and approach slabs still need regular watering while they cure. Gypsum and clay spill from loaded tippers and pile up on the approaches and at the deck edge; once a lump wedges between the deck and the pit wall or approach, part of the load bypasses the load cells, so the edges are cleared at every shift change.
