Load Volume Scanner (LVS)
Automated, Accurate Payload Measurement
Fully configurable – to suit your specific business needs.
Industry-Leading Load Volume Measurement Technology
The Loadscan® Load Volume Scanner (LVS) is a proven, high-accuracy load volume scanner system designed to measure truck and trailer loads in real time. Trusted globally across mining, quarrying, logistics, forestry, and bulk material operations, Loadscan delivers reliable volumetric data that improves productivity, billing accuracy, and operational transparency.
Whether deployed as a fixed installation or a trailer mounted mobile LVS-3TMM, Loadscan solutions provide fast, non-contact scanning for all vehicle types and material profiles.
What Is a Load Volume Scanner?
A load volume scanner, also known as a volumetric load scanner, uses laser scanning technology to measure the exact volume of material carried by trucks, trailers, or containers. The Loadscan LVS captures a precise 3D profile of each load, removing the need for manual estimation or unreliable visual checks.
This data is automatically processed and stored in the Loadscan MyScanner software, ensuring consistent, auditable, and tamper-proof results.
Why Choose the Loadscan LVS?
Accuracy Starts at the Scan Head
Loadscan is the only volumetric scanning manufacturer with internationally recognised Weights and Measurement Certifications (AUS & NZ), ensuring measurement accuracy to +/-1%.
Utilize World-Class Software
Loadscan’s MyScanner™ reporting software has been developed in conjunction with industry to ensure it is user friendly and data rich.
View 3D Images of Every Load
The LVS automatically records detailed load information. You’ll easily identify off-centre or sub-optimal loading and you’ll be better equipped to coach and train loader operators.

System Components
The standard block-mounted LVS configuration shown below is designed for use with on-road trucks and small off-highway articulated dumpers. Vehicles are scanned by driving slowly below the elevated scan head. The scanning process is fully automated.
A touch-screen operator console provides for easy operator control and monitoring of the system and a high visibility LED message board displays load results, driver instructions and status messages.
All Loadscan LVS systems also include an RFID tag reader (for automatic identification of each truck and trailer), docket printer, LVS measurement software, and MyScanner™ reporting software.
