Sanchore weighbridges for cumin, isabgol and gaushala fodder.
Sanchore is the Rajasthan town where the Narmada canal enters the state, and canal water has turned its sandy plain into a busy farm economy: cumin (jeera), isabgol, castor, mustard and wheat move through the Sanchore mandi, and much of it is traded on to Gujarat markets. The area is also home to large gaushalas, including Pathmeda, which buy fodder by the truckload. Symphony supplies weighbridges, truck scales and dharam kanta (धर्म कांटा / tol kanta) across the Sanchore area of Jalore district, including Chitalwana, Raniwara and Sarwana.
A Sanchore mandi trader or commission agent usually needs a stamped 40–60 MT, 16 m pit-less weighbridge (dharam kanta) that takes a tractor-trolley or a loaded truck in one pass; a gaushala buying fodder 40 MT on 16 m, because straw trucks are long and light; a trader dispatching cumin or castor in multi-axle trucks 60 MT on 16–18 m. Symphony builds it in Ahmedabad and dispatches it about 2 weeks after a commercially cleared order with PO.
High-value crops need a figure everyone accepts.
- Accuracy where every kilo countsClass III to OIML R76 with Legal Metrology model approval, for cumin and isabgol traded at high prices per quintal.
- Made for sandy groundPit-less weighbridges on raised pedestals, so wind-blown sand can be cleared instead of filling a pit.
- One slip for three partiesSMFW prints gross, tare, net, vehicle number and lot, so farmer, commission agent and buyer settle on the same figure.
Who needs one in Sanchore: Mandi traders and commission agents dealing in cumin (jeera), isabgol, castor, mustard and wheat; godowns and cleaning-grading units for seed spices; gaushalas and the fodder (straw and chaff) trade that supplies them; farm-input dealers in the Narmada canal command area; and transporters on the national highway and the expressway corridor.

Seed-spice traders, gaushalas and transporters across the Sanchore area.
Seed-spice traders
Cumin and isabgol are sold at high prices per quintal, so a small weighing error costs real money on every truck.
Our setup: A stamped 40–60 MT, 16 m pit-less weighbridge, Class III to OIML R76, with SMFW slips for farmer, agent and buyer.
Gaushalas buying fodder
Straw and chaff come in long, overhanging truckloads from many suppliers, and every load is paid by weight.
Our setup: A 40 MT, 16 m pit-less weighbridge with stored tares for regular suppliers and a record of every load bought.
Castor and grain dispatch
Traders load multi-axle trucks for processors and mills in Gujarat, and the buyer checks the weight on arrival.
Our setup: A 60 MT, 16–18 m pit-less steel or concrete (RCC) weighbridge, so the dispatch slip and the buyer's figure agree.

Sandy plots, dust storms and long fodder trucks: a weighbridge for Sanchore.
Cumin and isabgol are high-value crops, so a small error on the weighbridge is a large sum of money on every truck, and the buyer, the seller and the commission agent all want the same stamped figure. That makes a Class III weighbridge to OIML R76, stamped and re-verified on time, the starting point in Sanchore. The ground is the next issue. In the Narmada command area the water table and canal seepage matter as much as the sand: have the soil checked before the footings are drawn, and keep the pedestals and junction box above any water that stands after canal releases or rain. A pit-less weighbridge on raised pedestals suits this ground better than a pit, which collects both water and sand. Commission agents often weigh at the same time for farmer and buyer, so mount a second display or print two slips at once and the queue moves faster in the season. Fodder trucks for the gaushalas carry straw or chaff piled high and overhanging, but the overhang does not matter; the axles do. Every axle of the longest fodder truck must stand on the platform at once, so 16 m is the safe choice even though the load is light.
