Weighing and Measuring
Integration to weigh bridges and weigh scales is much more than the simple exchange of weight information if the full benefit of automation is to be achieved.
Integration of Compac Gold to weigh bridges will provide operators with details of what products are due to arrive, at what time, from what supplier, with the details of the haulier included. In this manner the operator is forewarned of what is scheduled to come in and is in a better position to reject unplanned and speculative arrivals.
Similarly the operator can be forewarned of the planned outward deliveries, either by their own or third party hauliers.
When the goods are actually moved the operator is easily able to locate the appropriate transaction capture the weight and produce complete weighbridge documentation irrespective of load size or product multiples. This information is then automatically immediately updated into Compac Gold to ensure a real-time stock position. Routing procedures can also be employed to pass appropriate information to Process Controllers.
Quality control is an essential element when recording material arrivals, so details of the planned arrivals are also made available to the laboratory personnel. As goods are sampled and tested, they can be associated with the goods inward document and the load can be accepted or rejected as necessary. The test results stay with the movement and can form the basis of claims or sliding scale price variances.
