Software for Weighing, Process Control, and Automation
SCALIS is a software platform for industrial weighing, operational automation, and digital tracking of material flows. It connects scales, vehicles, customers, orders, materials, operators, self-service kiosks, cameras, RFID/QR identification, barriers, traffic lights, the cloud, and enterprise systems into a single functional solution.
It’s not just software for a scale. SCALIS is a system that helps facilities weigh accurately, manage vehicle traffic, automate repetitive tasks, and provide management with reliable data for decision-making.
In industrial operations, simply weighing a vehicle is not enough. Every weighing operation is linked to a customer, material, order, carrier, vehicle, loading, departure, weigh ticket, invoicing, and internal records. If this data is recorded manually or in different systems, it leads to errors, delays, and a lack of transparency.
SCALIS digitizes and integrates these processes. This provides the facility with a unified system in which every weighing operation is recorded, traceable, verified, and ready for further processing.
SCALIS helps answer the following questions:
- Who came to the facility?
- What kind of vehicle was weighed?
- What kind of material was loaded or unloaded?
- What were the initial and final weights?
- Which customer, carrier, or order is associated with this?
- Was the weight confirmed by a photo or video footage?
- Which facility or authorized body performed the weighing?
- Is the data ready for reporting, invoicing, or ERP?
SCALIS provides digital recording and processing of industrial weighing data, from the moment a vehicle first comes into contact with the scale through to the final weighing record. The system collects data from road, bridge, belt, on-board, loading, rail, or process scales and integrates it with business, logistics, and operational data.
Each weighing can be assigned to a specific vehicle, license plate number, customer, carrier, material, order, facility, or weighing station. Thus, the system records not only the weight itself, but also a complete digital record that provides context for the entire process.
SCALIS supports check-in and check-out weighing, net weight calculation, commercial weighing, self-service weighing, photo documentation, printing of weigh slips, and data export. The data is stored in a database, where it can be retrieved, filtered, verified, and used for reporting, invoicing, or integration with an enterprise system.
For operations, this means less manual data entry, a lower risk of errors, and reliable documentation of every material movement.
SCALIS is not just record-keeping software. It can actively manage technologies, peripherals, and vehicle movement on the premises. Based on predefined rules, it determines what should happen at each specific step of the process: whether a vehicle can enter, whether it should proceed to loading, whether it can undergo exit weighing, or whether it can leave the premises.
The system can control barriers, traffic lights, external displays, self-service kiosks, RFID readers, QR/PIN terminals, cameras, LPR license plate recognition, intercoms, sensors, and other technological components. As a result, weighing becomes a controlled process, not just a manual task performed by an operator.
An example would be a situation where a vehicle arrives at the scale, identifies itself using an RFID card or QR code, the system verifies the order, and then authorizes the next step. If the data is correct, SCALIS records the weight, switches the traffic light, and opens the barrier. If the data does not match, the process stops or requires operator intervention.
This gives the facility better control over traffic, security, vehicle access, and the weighing process.
SCALIS integrates the individual steps of weighing, shipping, loading, record-keeping, and data export into a single automated workflow. Tasks that are typically performed manually, by phone, or on paper can be carried out automatically according to a predefined scenario.
The system can automate vehicle identification, order verification, customer assignment, material selection, weigh-in, passage authorization, loading or unloading, weigh-out, net weight calculation, weigh ticket generation, photo storage, and data export to other systems.
Automation is particularly important in operations with a high volume of vehicles, multiple materials, or repetitive processes. Instead of the operator having to enter the same data for every weighing, SCALIS works with pre-entered data, driver or vehicle identification, and rules configured for the specific facility.
The result is faster vehicle processing, fewer errors, greater transparency, and accurate data for operations, dispatch, accounting, and management.
SCALIS Architecture
SCALIS Local is the lowest level of the system. It represents a single specific weighing or automation station within the facility.
These could include, for example:
- one truck scale
- inlet or outlet weight
- SCALIS self-service kiosk
- belt scale
- loader weight
- entrance gate
- output point
- RFID/QR Terminal
- camera location
- process measurement point
SCALIS Local collects data directly from a specific location. It can read weight from a scale, identify a vehicle using an RFID card or QR code, save a photo from a camera, control a traffic light, or open a gate.
Example:
At the entrance to the quarry, there is a weigh station equipped with a traffic light, a barrier, and an RFID reader. A vehicle pulls up to the weigh station, the RFID card is scanned, the system records the entry weight, and once the conditions are met, the barrier opens. This specific station is SCALIS Local.
SCALIS Central
SCALIS Central connects multiple local stations within a single facility. It covers the entire site—for example, a single quarry, a single concrete plant, a single recycling yard, or a single manufacturing facility.
SCALIS Central collects data from all local points and enables their centralized management. Within a single facility, SCALIS Central can thus connect the entry scale, exit scale, self-service kiosk, belt scale, loader scale, cameras, barriers, and traffic lights.
Example:
The concrete plant has an entry weighbridge, an exit weighbridge, a belt scale for aggregate, and a self-service terminal for drivers. Each location can function as a SCALIS Local site, but they all belong to a single operation. SCALIS Central connects them so that operators can view all weighings, materials, orders, and vehicle movements in a single system.
SCALIS Enterprise is the highest level of the system. It is used when a company needs to manage multiple separate operations at the same time.
Enterprise integrates data from multiple locations and provides a centralized view of the entire company. This means management does not have to monitor each facility separately. They can view consolidated reports, material volumes, facility performance, the number of weighings, customers, carriers, and other key data.
Example:
The company has three quarries, two concrete plants, and one recycling yard. Each facility has its own SCALIS Central and multiple local workstations. SCALIS Enterprise connects these facilities into a single system so that company management can view data from all locations centrally.
SCALIS HUB is the system’s data center. It consolidates data generated by scales, vending machines, local operations, and other modules. It is used for data management, reporting, performance analysis, statistics, and managing the history of commercial weighings.
A HUB is especially important when a company needs to work with large amounts of data from multiple locations.
SCALIS Portal is a web-based interface for managing devices, data, and reports. It serves as an online environment for managers, service staff, sales, accounting, and company leadership.
Through the Portal, you can monitor devices, their locations, technical specifications, history, service data, warranty expiration dates, official inspection dates, maintenance schedules, and operational data.
Example:
A manager opens the SCALIS Portal and can see which scales are active, where they are located, how many weighings have been performed that day, and which devices will soon need calibration or service.
SCALIS Storage is a storage system for operational data. It is used to securely store weighing slips, photographs, weighing history, reports, and related documents.
Storage is particularly important for data retrieval, complaints, internal audits, accounting, and audits.
Example:
A customer is filing a complaint about the quantity of material delivered. An operator or manager can look up the specific weighing record, weigh ticket, date, time, vehicle, weight, and photo from the scale in SCALIS Storage.
SCALIS SOA is a shipping and order management module. It allows you to prepare an order in advance and link it to a vehicle, a customer, materials, and an identification method.
A dispatcher or authorized user prepares the order, the system generates a QR code or PIN, and the driver then identifies himself at the scale without having to enter the information manually.
Example:
A customer orders 24 metric tons of 0/32 aggregate. The dispatcher creates an order in SCALIS SOA and assigns a vehicle and the material. The driver receives a QR code. Upon arrival at the scale, the driver scans the QR code; SCALIS fills in all the data and performs the weighing.
SCALIS Connect enables wireless communication between software and technologies in the facility.ä
The company operates three quarries. Each quarry has one entry scale, one exit scale, a self-service kiosk, RFID readers, cameras, and barriers.
SCALIS Local operates at the level of a single weighing station.
SCALIS Central connects all weighing stations within a single quarry.
SCALIS Enterprise connects all of the company’s quarries.
Data from the system is stored and made available via SCALIS HUB, Portal, and Storage.
Orders and QR/PIN identification are processed via SCALIS SOA.
Peripheral devices such as barriers, traffic lights, RFID readers, and cameras are connected via SCALIS Connect.
As a result, drivers are served more quickly, operations require less manual work, and management can view data from all locations in a single system.
