Weighing Large Jets Made Easy

Jan. 7, 2021

Jackson Aircraft Weighing Systems (J.A.W.S.) has now fully developed the next generation of digital wireless, under axle weighing systems for Airbus and Boeing aircraft types.

J.A.W.S. are now producing several types of Under Axle Weighing Systems (UAWS) for 737, A320, 757, A330, 767, 777, 787 aircraft types. These systems are using our Aeroweigh brand of transducers, wirelessly connected to a laptop computer system and mounted on our portable axle jacks.

Larry Jackson, company president, advises that several systems are in service world wide. No longer do you have to move and locate large heavy platforms, ramps and bridges, taking many personnel and labor time. No longer do you require an empty hangar, large tug and tow bar, pulling an aircraft on to and off of platforms. With J.A.W.S.' system you just roll the jacks with cells fitted up to the aircraft and jack it in place.

J.A.W.S.' system is safe, quick and easy to use, we just recently set up the system in less than 30 minutes, lifted and weighed a 767 in 32 minutes, three times, rotating the equipment each time. MRO customers have reported weighing 757 aircraft as well as A320 aircraft in similar time frames or less. J.A.W.S. recorded a video showing the event and a lift cycle so you can see for your self how quick and efficient the process is.

J.A.W.S. have several configurations, jack sizes and adapters, along with their wireless weighing equipment to meet your requirements. J.A.W.S.' system runs on shop air, is smooth lifting and does not "hammer" the weighing equipment or aircraft like other pneumatic jacks. The lift is accomplished in many cases in 2 minutes or less, weight readings taken and lowered in 2 minutes or less. Customers have reported that with trained personnel, many times only one hour is needed for the weighing, saving time and labor costs. One MRO reported saving 24 many labor hours to accomplish the task using our equipment over other conventional methods.
