Modern logistics requires precision. Weighing systems in yard management play a central role in optimizing material flow and increasing efficiency. The systems allow accurate recording of vehicle and cargo weights, which not only ensures compliance with regulations but also improves resource planning and management. They are a significant contributor to reducing costs and increasing productivity.
In logistics, production, or construction, weighbridges are essential for effective yard management. For this purpose, weighing systems are available in a wide variety of designs from different manufacturers. These include, for example, surface-mounted, pit-mounted, modular, and transportable variants, to fit every specific need.
A major challenge lies in standardized communication with the weighing controllers. It can be challenging to integrate these into internal or external systems and keep them up to date at the same time.
To make matters worse, each manufacturer uses a different protocol; even the protocols of the various models from a single manufacturer usually differ. Software developers without specific expertise are faced with a number of challenges. Implementing cryptic protocols, accessing registers, differentiating between current and legal weight and taking into account the special features of multi-channel and multi-segment scales can be very complex. This is exactly where our solution can help. We take care of the connection with your weighbridges. Our up-to-date, well-documented and easy-to-understand Rest API ensures a simple connection.
