WingScan-T & NTEP: A Powerful Legal For Trade Load Scanner

Published By • Product Manager, WingScan •

Wingfield Scale’s WingScan-T 3D-M brings NTEP-certified volumetric scanning to operations that need legal-for-trade load measurement.

If you haul aggregate, soil, mulch, or other bulk materials, you can now bill by volume with the same compliance you expect from traditional scales.

  • Front-end loader fills a test bucket with aggregate for WingScan-T NTEP field testing
  • Crane lifts the aggregate-filled test bucket to stage a controlled load for WingScan-T NTEP testing
  • Suspended test bucket dumps aggregate into a haul truck during the WingScan-T NTEP test procedure
  • Loaded haul truck drives away from the staging area as part of the WingScan-T NTEP field test
  • Haul truck passes under the WingScan-T LiDAR gantry for volumetric measurement capture during NTEP testing

What does NTEP mean for volumetric load scanning?

NTEP certification means WingScan’s measurements are legally recognized for commercial transactions—the same standard that applies to truck scales and other trade instruments.

Why does this matter?

Traditional scales can force vehicles to stop, creating operational bottlenecks. WingScan-T eliminates this problem by measuring in motion at speeds up to 5.0 mph (as certified above).

With NTEP approval, that volumetric data is legal for trade. You can bill, reconcile, and manage inventory using verified cubic yard or cubic meter measurements.
