Chalisgaon weighbridges for cotton, maize and cane.
Chalisgaon, in the south of Jalgaon district, is a railway junction and a busy agricultural market town. Its agricultural produce market committee trades cotton, maize, bajra, jowar and wheat, brought in by tractor-trolley from the villages of the taluka; cotton ginning and pressing units work through the season; sugarcane grown in the taluka goes to sugar mills by truck and tractor-trailer; and the Dhule–Aurangabad road carries grain and cotton trucks through the town. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा / vajan kata) across Chalisgaon taluka.
A Chalisgaon cotton or maize trader usually needs a 40–60 MT, 12–16 m pit-less weighbridge with a printed slip for every trolley; a ginning and pressing unit 60 MT on 16 m; a sugar factory 80–100 MT on 18 m for cane trucks and tractor-trailer combinations, often with the unmanned option; a public weighbridge 60–100 MT on 16–18 m (dharam kanta). Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad and dispatches it about 2 weeks after a commercially cleared order with PO.

Double trolleys, moisture and black soil: sizing a Chalisgaon weighbridge.
In Chalisgaon the tractor sets the size. Cotton, maize and cane all arrive on tractor-trolleys, many with two trolleys behind one tractor, so the platform must take the whole combination in one weighing: a 16 m weighbridge for single trolleys, 18 m for cane trailers. Every trolley has its own tare, and many come back the same day, so fresh tare on every trip and an SMFW slip with gross, tare and net protect the trader and the farmer alike. Maize is bought on moisture as well as weight; note the moisture reading alongside the slip so the price follows both. A sugar factory weighs hundreds of cane vehicles a day in the crushing season: two weighbridges, or one with the unmanned option (RFID, cameras, boom barrier), keep the queue moving at night. The black soil of the Girna basin swells and shrinks with the monsoon, so the foundation drawing takes the footings to firm strata or onto a compacted base, and the ramps are built on the same base.
