With the development of information technology and electronic weighing technology, various advanced technologies have integrated with each other, greatly promoting the development of scales. In addition, industries using scales have higher requirements for the equipment itself. On the basis of higher accuracy and stability, it is necessary to solve the problems of the original scales and provide more management functions.
In places such as cargo yards, ports, and factory entrances and exits, truck scales are the main means of weighing trucks. Although they improve weighing efficiency, there are also many problems. Among them, fraudulent behavior is a major issue that greatly affects businesses and damages their economic benefits. Common fraudulent means in truck scale weighing mainly include drivers using vehicle parking positions to cheat, resulting in weighing results lower than the actual load; scale operators assisting in fraud, or even tampering with data.
Faced with the issue of fraud in truck scale weighing, strengthening weighing supervision, achieving unmanned operation, and data informatization are important means. The unmanned truck scale system is an anti-fraud management software system that integrates various technologies such as information networks, computer management, smart gates, infrared monitoring, video surveillance, and RFID. It helps enterprises completely eliminate fraudulent behavior during truck scale weighing.
The unmanned truck scale system is equipped with sensors that can monitor vehicle parking positions. If the parking position deviates from the specified position, it will provide intelligent voice reminders, and weighing cannot be performed, the gate cannot be opened, and the truck cannot complete the weighing or enter the internal area. This step first ensures the parking position of the vehicle and avoids fraud using the parking position.
To address fraud resulting from excessive contact between scale operators and drivers, the unmanned truck scale system implements informatization, automation, and unmanned operation to improve work efficiency. It uses automatic voice guidance to instruct drivers to park and weigh according to regulations, employs traffic lights to control vehicle passage, and uses voice and electronic screens to display and issue various information. This process minimizes the need for scale operators to have excessive contact with drivers, and the system automatically monitors various aspects, thereby avoiding collaborative fraud between drivers and on-site personnel such as scale operators.
To grasp the entire situation at the weighing site and enable traceability in case of issues, real-time online video surveillance systems are installed on-site. The video system monitors the site, and the display screen in the monitoring center can capture the entire weighing and loading/unloading process. To enhance supervision and control, on-site video surveillance footage is recorded and can be reviewed, which is helpful for resolving issues that may arise afterward. Additionally, video surveillance has a potential management effect on on-site personnel.
In traditional truck scale systems, data needs to be manually recorded, resulting in low informatization and delays in managers receiving data, leading to issues such as management derailment and inadequate supervision. The unmanned truck scale system is equipped with weighing software that allows real-time viewing of weighing data (including vehicle information, weighing loads, etc.) and video surveillance footage, and can generate reports. The system manages personnel, sets different permissions for different roles, strictly verifies the identities of weighing operators, ensures the real-time accuracy of data, and prevents fraudulent behaviors such as data tampering.
The unmanned truck scale system transforms the simple weighing function into a comprehensive solution with complete control functions, effective anti-fraud measures, and real-time accurate information, eliminating fraud in truck scale weighing.
