Jhagadia weighbridges for chemical gates and ISO tankers.
Jhagadia in Bharuch district is home to one of Gujarat's large industrial estates. Jhagadia GIDC holds chemical, agrochemical, pharmaceutical-intermediate and engineering plants, many of them big sites with their own tank farms and warehouses, and lignite is mined in the Rajpardi area of the taluka. Raw material arrives by tanker, ISO tank container and bulk truck, and finished goods leave in drums, bags and tankers. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा) across Jhagadia taluka and its industrial estate.
A Jhagadia GIDC plant that receives ISO tank containers and tankers all day usually runs two weighbridges (dharam kanta): an 18 m, 60–80 MT concrete (RCC) weighbridge at the inward gate with RFID, cameras and a boom barrier, and a 60 MT, 16–18 m weighbridge at the dispatch gate; a lignite or bulk-material yard needs 80–100 MT on 16–18 m. Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad and dispatches it about 2 weeks after a cleared order with PO.
Weighed full, weighed empty: the difference is what the plant pays for.
- Full and empty, both on recordLoaded and empty weighments stored together in SMFW, so the net is what the plant pays for.
- Built for the chemical gateA concrete (RCC) weighbridge with a 25-year structural warranty on the RCC (T&C).
- Weighed without an operatorRFID, cameras, positioning sensors and a boom barrier for night tankers.
Who needs one in Jhagadia: Chemical, agrochemical, pharmaceutical-intermediate and engineering plants in Jhagadia GIDC; tank farms, drum stores and warehouses inside the plant sites; lignite mining in the Rajpardi area; fabrication and maintenance contractors serving the estate; transporters running tankers, ISO tank containers and bulk trucks; and the farms of Jhagadia taluka.
Also called a dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा), truck scale or weigh bridge. We also serve Rajpardi, Umalla.
Inward gates, dispatch, bulk yards in Jhagadia taluka.
Inward gates of chemical plants
Tankers and ISO tank containers are weighed full and empty, and the difference is what the plant pays for.
Our setup: A 60–80 MT, 18 m concrete (RCC) weighbridge with stored tares and the unmanned option.
Dispatch gates and drum stores
Drums, bags and product tankers leave by truck, and the net weight must agree with the invoice.
Our setup: A 60 MT, 16–18 m RCC weighbridge with SMFW slips carrying invoice or challan numbers.
Lignite and bulk yards
Heavy tippers run on dusty haul roads and drop fines on every trip.
Our setup: An 80–100 MT steel-cum-RCC weighbridge with sealed IP67/IP68 load cells.

Acid drips and liquid surge: build and weigh for both.
In a large Jhagadia plant, the weighbridge is part of the gate system, not a stand-alone scale. A tanker or ISO tank container arrives with a delivery note, is weighed loaded, unloads at the tank farm and is weighed empty before the exit pass is issued, so the difference between the two weighments is what the plant pays for. Where tankers come in and finished goods go out all day, larger plants often keep one weighbridge at the inward gate and another at the dispatch gate. An ISO tank on its trailer needs the full 18 m so every axle sits on the platform, and a liquid load keeps moving after the brakes go on, so the slip should print only after the tanker has come to rest and the liquid has settled, so the indicator shows a stable weight. Acid, alkali and solvent drips attack painted steel; a concrete (RCC) weighbridge, with a 25-year structural warranty on the RCC (T&C), stands up to spills better and is easy to wash down, though strong acid spills should still be washed off promptly. The weighbridge and its cabin go where the plant's HSE rules allow, clear of the tank-farm hazard zone. For round-the-clock traffic, RFID tags, cameras, positioning sensors and a boom barrier let tankers be weighed without an operator at the bridge, and SMFW keeps each weighment with the vehicle number, party and photos for audit. Symphony gives stamping support for Legal Metrology verification.

Gate layout to stamping support: a Jhagadia weighbridge for round-the-clock tankers.
Six steps for your project in Jhagadia. Most of the waiting is the foundation curing, so the drawing comes first.
- 1 · Your traffic in JhagadiaTell us the heaviest vehicle you weigh (here, typically tankers and ISO tank containers), the space at the gate and the daily count. An engineer replies within one working day.
- 2 · Size and quotationOur usual starting point (chemical or agrochemical plant: inward gate): 60–80 MT, 18 m weighbridge, Concrete (RCC) + unmanned. 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 weighbridge 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 calibrationWeighbridge placed, load cells and indicator connected and calibrated, SMFW stored tares set up (RFID, cameras and boom barrier where ordered), 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.
