Manpower costs
Delay in operations
Errors in data capturing
Intentional or unintentional errors in the data capturing can cause significant discrepancies and issues moving ahead in the supply chain operations.
Difficulty in supervision and reporting
As all the data is manually captured, there are high chances of errors, which are difficult to fix at a later stage, and manually prepared reports are time consuming and inaccurate due to the inaccurate data
Authorization
This is a fail-safe method to ensure that only authorized trucks are entering the premises. Only after the data is captured from the RFID or the ANPR system, does the boom barrier open, and the truck enters the weighbridge.
Positioning
Mispositioned trucks do not give accurate weighment, this would cause the wrong data to be stored, and affect the rest of the supply chain processes. Our Unmanned System utilized position sensors to ensure that every single truck weighment is accurate.
Weighment
CCTV/IP cameras are present to enhance security and safety. The system automatically captures various images of the truck, and stores it along with the weighment data. After all the data is stored on the system, the barriers open and the truck is allowed to leave.
Transaction completion
After the gross/tare weights are measured, automated text alerts/email alerts are shared to all relevant personnel. All the information, including the photos of the truck, are ready to view on all platforms, this includes the software, the cloud server, or the ERP platform.
Phase One
- Authorization: RFID/UHF card reader authorizes the vehicle
- Opening Barricade: Barricade automatically opens after authorization
Phase Two
- Sending a Signal: As soon as the truck reaches the center of the weighbridge, the position sensor sends a signal for measuring weighment.
- Capturing Weighment: The weighing unit load cells in unattended weighbridge system capture weighment after getting the signal.
- Truck Identification: IP camera sends the truck image to the weighbridge software.
- Weighment Information: A jumbo display connected to weighing bridge software shows weighment information to the truck driver.
- Weighing Information Processing: The indicator at the control room processes the information and sends it to the weighing software.
Phase Three
- Unloading the Vehicle: Again, the jumbo display presents the weighment information to a truck driver on returning.
How Does A Weighbridge Work Without Manpower?
The entire unmanned weighbridge system runs based on automation. The functions that are operated by a man are executed automatically through the automated weighbridge system features. The step by step process is as below:
Main Components of Unmanned Weighing System
Weighbridge System Software
Modifies the weighbridge working principle to meet your specific requirements.
RFID reader
To prevent misemployment of weighbridge functions by an unauthorized person.
Automated Weighbridge System
Weighbridge Management System
Completely innovative weighing system facilitates flexibility & higher productivity.
Automated Weighing Software
To store, manage & track the data to ensure an accurate overview.
CCTV Video Surveillance
To keep an eye, especially on truck drivers and vehicles that enter & exit.
Traffic Lights
To communicate with truck drivers about when to enter or exit the weighing bridge.
Barrier Gates & Security
Manages traffic on the weighing bridge by automatically opening and closing the gate based on signals.

The Whys & Wherefores of Unmanned Weighing
From our years of experience and working with clients across numerous industries, We have gained a deep understanding of the problems that our clients have regularly faced, in terms of theft. Traditional weighbridge systems allow certain weighbridge malpractices to go unnoticed. One of the biggest malpractices that causes huge losses to any organization is theft. The amount of Weighment thefts occurring globally, have significantly risen over the years and this has become a major concern for all companies that utilize weighbridges at their facilities, big and small organizations are falling victim to these malpractices which result in huge losses
There are many other ways in which a weighbridge can be cheated, and theft may occur, we will be highlighting some of these ways and how WeighMAST solves these problems, and reduces the chance of theft.
