Lift Profits, Lower Logistics Expenses with CLS Forklift Scales
The CLS Series forklift scale mounts directly to most Class II forklifts, saving material handling processes time and money. The CLS forklift scale system can be paired with a device for weight display through a cable or cableless connection. The weight display can either be a Rice Lake Weighing Systems indicator designed for the CLS or virtually through a device that supports the VIRTUi3 software application. There is also an optional USB, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi connection available for connection to peripheral equipment.
