Weigh in Motion (WIM) is a technology used to measure the weight of vehicles while they are in motion. It is typically used in traffic monitoring and enforcement applications, such as toll collection and road safety. WIM systems use sensors to measure the weight of vehicles as they pass over a weigh station. The sensors measure the force exerted by the vehicle on the road surface, which is then used to calculate the vehicle's weight. WIM systems are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to provide accurate weight measurements without slowing down traffic. This makes them ideal for applications such as toll collection, where speed and accuracy are both important. Additionally, WIM systems can be used to monitor the weight of vehicles in order to ensure compliance with road safety regulations. Some companies in the WIM market include Kistler, Siemens, and Honeywell. These companies offer a range of WIM systems, from basic weigh stations to more advanced systems that can measure multiple parameters, such as axle weight and speed. Show Less Read more
