The
weight of all packages is recorded by different weighing systems such as
platform or roller conveyor scales. The values are transferred to higher-level
warehouse management systems, printed on labels, prepared for air waybills and
compiled for the loading plan.
Special
attention is paid to the weighing technology used. It must not only provide
precise data, but should also be capable of comprehensive monitoring for
maximum availability.
Incorrect
weight information causes that the trim, the optimal distribution of weight in
the aircraft, is not correct, that cargo space limits are exceeded or that the
maximum ground load limits are violated.
The
combination of the SIWAREX DB digital junction box with the SIWAREX WP231
weighing electronics enables seamless monitoring of individual analogue load
cells. SIWAREX WP231 is a standalone weighing electronics unit that integrates
seamlessly into the process at Cargologic. The modernized roller conveyor
scale is operated via a Simatic IPC 277 panel PC.
Single channel monitoring via SIWAREX DB means that fault conditions of each load cell are individually recorded and displayed via the operator interface
Simple check of the mechanics: With SIWAREX DB, the percentage utilization of each individual load cell can be determined directly
Functionality of the roller conveyor scale and a
multi-year supply of spare parts are ensured
