AxlewiseBook a demo

Every axle legal before the truck moves.

Axlewise works out where every pallet goes, so steer, drive and trailer axles all pass the weighbridge.

Loaded by feel

Heaviest pallets first, straight in behind the headboard. It is how most trucks get loaded, and it is how drive tandems get overloaded.

Drive tandem: 19 697 kg on an 18 000 kg limit.

Then the maths takes over

Axlewise takes moments about the kingpin and every axle group, then moves pallets until the busiest group sits as far below its limit as the load allows.

Rtridem = Σ m·(x − xkingpin) / (xtridem − xkingpin)
Rdrive = Wtractor + Rkingpin − Rsteer

Same pallets. Same truck. Legal.

The same 22 pallets and 28 440 kg of payload, placed differently. Nothing left behind, nothing added.

Green at the weighbridge

The plan goes to the loader's phone pallet by pallet, and onto a printed manifest for the driver. By the time the truck rolls onto the bridge, it is already legal.

Built for whoever loads the truck

Transporters

Load to the limit, not past it.

Plan every trip against your own tractor and trailer, axle group by axle group, and stop losing hours and fines at the bridge.

  • Your fleet: tare, axle spacing, kingpin
  • Rigid trucks, tridems and interlinks
  • A manifest for every trip

Farmers and pack-houses

Mixed orders, several drop-offs, one truck.

Pallets go on in delivery order and every axle stays legal after each stop, without a loader doing the sums in their head.

  • Products with real pallet weights
  • Clients and their drop-off order
  • The scanner app on the packing floor

The law, the fleet and the floor in one plan

The regulations, built in

Every axle group is checked against the National Road Traffic Regulations, with the 5% axle and 2% combination grace the weighbridge applies.

Checked after every stop

Unloading the back pushes weight onto the drive tandem. The plan stays legal on every leg.

A scanner app for the loading floor

Loaders scan each pallet sticker, or read its printed weight, straight onto the planned load. A duplicate scan can be voided on the spot.

A manifest the driver can read

The pallet map, colour-coded by stop, with axle loads and clients on one printed page that travels with the truck.

Three steps to a legal load

  1. Add your fleet

    Enter each tractor and trailer once: tare, axle spacing, kingpin. Or upload the spec sheet and let Axlewise read it.

  2. Build the load

    Pick the clients, the products and the drop-off order. Axlewise places every pallet and shows each axle group against its limit.

  3. Load to plan

    Print the manifest or follow it on the scanner app. The truck leaves the yard legal, and stays legal stop by stop.
