Phalodi weighbridges for salt works, solar parks and mandis.
Phalodi, in the Thar of western Rajasthan and now the headquarters of its own district, is one of the state's salt towns: brine from the salt pans around Phalodi is evaporated into salt that leaves by truck through the year. Bap tehsil is home to the Bhadla solar park, one of the largest solar parks in India, and new solar projects in the area bring truck traffic in steel, cement and aggregate, and the Phalodi mandi trades cumin, guar, moong and bajra from the desert farms. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा / tol kanta) across Phalodi district.
A Phalodi salt works usually needs a 60–100 MT, 16–18 m weighbridge in concrete (RCC) or steel-cum-RCC, because salt and brine attack bare steel; a solar project contractor a 60–80 MT, 16–18 m modular weighbridge (no foundation required: it installs within hours on a hard, level surface such as concrete); a cumin or guar trader 40–60 MT on 12–16 m, stamped for trade; 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.

Salt works and packing units

Concrete top or steel? Choosing for Phalodi's salt and sand.
Salt is the first thing to plan for in Phalodi. Salt dust, brine and wet salt dripping from loaded trucks corrode bare steel plates, bolts and cable glands, so a salt works should choose a concrete (RCC) or steel-cum-RCC weighbridge, sealed IP67/IP68 load cells and junction boxes, a drained foundation and a routine of washing the platform edges. The second is the desert itself: wind carries fine sand under the platform, so keep the gap open and sweepable, and summer heat is extreme, so house the indicator, printer and computer in a shaded cabin with ventilation. Solar project contractors around Bhadla work to a schedule: steel, cement and aggregate are weighed for one block, then the site office moves to the next. For them a modular weighbridge fits: no foundation required, it installs within hours on a hard, level surface such as concrete. Cumin and guar traders need the opposite: a permanent, stamped weighbridge, re-verified on time, because every slip is a sale.
