Gandhidham weighbridges for tankers, timber and salt.
Gandhidham is the trading town of Deendayal Port at Kandla: edible oil and liquid cargo, timber logs, salt, fertiliser and containers all pass through its yards. Kandla SEZ, the sawmill belt and the salt works of eastern Kutch add their own heavy trucks. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा) across Gandhidham, Kandla, Adipur and Anjar.
For a Gandhidham tank farm or timber yard, a 60–80 MT weighbridge with a 16–18 m deck weighs tankers and log trailers in one pass; salt works suit a concrete (RCC) deck, and container freight stations 60–100 MT on 18 m with unmanned RFID weighing. Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad.
Port cargo is paid by weight, and salt air tests the deck.
- Built for salt and sea airConcrete (RCC) decks and sealed IP67/IP68 load cells for creek-side salt works and coastal yards, with a 25-year structural warranty on the RCC concrete (T&C apply).
- Salt-industry experienceSymphony supplied three 100 MT steel-cum-RCC weighbridges to Sambhar Salts in Rajasthan.
- Unmanned for round-the-clock yardsRFID, cameras and a boom barrier weigh container trailers and tankers on night shifts, with SMFW records for every trip.
Who needs one in Gandhidham: Deendayal Port (Kandla) with its liquid, bulk and timber cargo, edible oil and liquid tank farms, sawmills and timber yards, salt works, Kandla SEZ export units, container freight stations and warehouses, fertiliser, and the pipe, steel and engineering units around Anjar.
Also called a dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा), truck scale or weigh bridge. We also serve Kandla, Adipur, Anjar, Bhachau, Mithirohar.
Tank farms, timber and salt works.
Edible oil and liquid tank farms
Tankers are filled from storage tanks and the cargo is sold by weight, so every tanker needs an exact tare and gross on a printed slip.
Our setup: A 60–80 MT, 16–18 m deck, stamped for trade, with SMFW storing each tanker's tare and the party name.
Timber yards and sawmills
Imported logs leave the port on long trailers with uneven loads, and the buyer pays by weight.
Our setup: An 18 m deck of 60–80 MT, so every axle of the log trailer is on the platform in one weighing.
Salt works on the creeks
Pans are harvested in a dry-season peak, tippers shuttle between pans and washeries on creek-side roads, and brine and saline soil corrode exposed steel.
Our setup: A 60 MT, 16 m concrete (RCC) deck with sealed IP67/IP68 load cells. For salt, Symphony has also supplied three 100 MT steel-cum-RCC weighbridges to Sambhar Salts (Rajasthan).

- Deendayal Port, Kandlaliquid, bulk, timber and container cargo
- Anjar–Varsamedi areapipes, steel and engineering units
Saline soil, long loads: choose the deck for both.
Around Kandla almost every load is weighed for someone else: the port, the buyer, customs or the transporter. Edible oil and liquid tankers are filled from the tank farms and sold by weight, so the tanker's tare and gross must be exact and printed. Log trailers from the timber yards carry long, uneven loads, so an 18 m deck keeps every axle on the platform. Salt works on the creeks load tippers in salty, wet conditions, and saline soil and sea air eat unprotected steel: a concrete (RCC) deck with sealed IP67/IP68 load cells lasts here, backed by a 25-year structural warranty on the RCC concrete (T&C apply). Symphony also supplied three 100 MT steel-cum-RCC weighbridges to Sambhar Salts in Rajasthan. Container yards run round the clock, so unmanned weighing with RFID, cameras and a boom barrier keeps the gate moving without an operator on every shift. Kutch summers are hot and dusty, so the indicator and printer are best kept in a closed cabin.
