RFID Weighbridge Automation Purpose

• Teknopalas first implemented the UHF RFID Weighbridge Automation in Turkey. This system ensures that transport vehicles are weighed, directed, and loaded efficiently.

• Additionally, it collects driver information and guarantees weighing security.

• The system also transfers data to the central system online and runs administrative reporting processes without requiring an operator.

• In this way, all operations are carried out automatically, improving both efficiency and security.

RFID Weighbridge Automation Features

Security

• Labels affixed to vehicle windows remain attached to a single vehicle and cannot be transferred. The system uses Higgs4 chips, which deactivate if removed from the glass. These chips offer excellent protection against UV light and are recognized by independent testing institutions as the most secure chips in the world.

Distance

• The system’s antennas do not need direct line-of-sight to detect the tag. TPS RFID vehicle tags are detected within the coverage area, even when not visible to the antennas. This area can be adjusted from 1 to 15 meters to suit the system’s requirements.

Central Management Module

• The system enables seamless control of up to 10 scales simultaneously, without any delay.

IP Camera

• Integrated IP cameras support the system, allowing each scale’s weighing records to be matched with corresponding video or photo footage for accurate verification.

Reportable Photo Recording Module

• The system tracks the vehicle, driver, and load during the weighing process. This provides visual records of each historical weighing.

Automatic Driver Control

• The system scans each driver’s card as they pass through the scale. It also records the action with the camera, ensuring there are no unauthorized shifts between drivers.

Consistency

• The system keeps all data consistent and reliable, even during 24/7 operation. It maintains the same level of accuracy as it did when first installed.

Web-Based Reporting

• Authorized users can access reports directly through internet browsers without needing to install any additional programs.

Durable System

• The system operates seamlessly in all weather conditions and harsh environments, ensuring no performance loss.

Print Receipt

• The system eliminates manual data entry, reducing labor costs.

​RFID Weighbridge Automation Working Principle

1. The vehicle enters the scale, where the system immediately reads its tare weight and transfers the data to the main computer.
2. The RFID reader detects the vehicle’s RFID tag and displays the identification information on the screen.
3. At the same time, the system reads the driver’s RFID tag and shows the driver’s details.
4. The system checks both the vehicle and driver information against its database. If both are valid, the system records the weight and stores the data securely.
5. Throughout the weighing process, the system provides start and end information to the driver via messages displayed on the LED screen.
6. If the camera option is enabled, the system captures images of the vehicle during weighing and stores them in the weighing database.

​RFID Weighbridge Automation Usage Areas

Solid Waste Transfer & Warehouse Centers

When silos arrive at transfer stations, the system automatically sends the vehicle’s plate information to the central scale automation software. This allows the weighing process to proceed without user intervention.

Here’s how the system works:

• High-security RFID chips are installed in all silos and on the windows of transfer vehicles.
• RFID readers on the platforms detect vehicles as they approach.
• The system identifies each vehicle using the RFID tags and the control software.
• Once the vehicle completes its movement, the system triggers the LED panels to turn green. The system then sends the vehicle’s data to the central software.
• When the vehicle finishes loading and begins to exit, the system detects this and turns the LED lights to red.

Excavation Storage Areas

Proper management of excavation waste is crucial, especially in urban areas undergoing transformation. Handling these materials efficiently contributes to building healthy environments and sustainable living spaces. With increasing attention to urban planning and environmental impact, excavation waste management plays a key role in the overall process.

Excavation Waste Measurement & Orientation

Automation technology streamlines the management of excavation soil, construction, and demolition waste. It ensures these processes are fast, environmentally safe, and meet regulatory requirements.

Waste Paper Collection Centers

The system integrates weighbridge automation with the weighing and analysis of scrap paper. This integration enables automated tracking and administrative reporting.

Vehicles carrying scrap paper are tagged with RFID chips, which automatically identify them and facilitate unmanned weighing. After weighing, the system records all paper analysis, ensuring efficient tracking and management of the scrap paper.
