Drivers walking through traffic
Collecting instructions and paper dockets adds pedestrian movements around heavy vehicles.
Keep trucks moving.

A safer weighing workflow. Less time in the queue. Software and automation built around your site—and the equipment you already own.

Built for the working yard
A truck queue is
an operating cost.
A walk to the office. The same details entered twice. A connection that drops mid-shift. Small delays at the weighbridge affect every load that follows.
Connectivity holding up a load
Essential local weighing steps should not depend on a connection to a remote server.
Good equipment. Disconnected systems.
A working indicator should not become a replacement project just because the software changes.
From the cab to the office
Fewer hand-offs.
A better working day.
Bring drivers, weight indicators and site controls into one practical weighing workflow.
In-cab weighing
The driver stays
with the truck.
Identify the vehicle, follow the weighing instructions and receive the digital docket from the cab. Remove the walk to an office or external terminal from the supported weighing process.

Choose a typical site workflow
- 01
Identify the truck
The driver connects from the cab. Configured vehicle recognition can supply identification details.
- 02
Position & weigh
Site signals guide access. Capture the stable tare reading before loading.
- 03
Load & return
The truck loads, returns to the bridge and completes the gross weighing.
- 04
Confirm the load
Associate the measurements with the vehicle and transaction, then calculate net mass.
- 05
Receive the docket
The driver receives a digital docket in the cab and follows site signals to depart.
- 06
Update the business
Transfer agreed records to connected systems. Queue records if the internet is unavailable.
Outbound load: Tare in → load → gross out → digital docket.

Keep the equipment.
Improve the operation.
Connect supported legacy indicators through RS-232 or RS-485, or use Ethernet with compatible IP indicators. Retain serviceable load cells and indicators while extending what the site can do.
- Site automation
- Boom gates, traffic lights, number plate recognition, mmWave and optical positioning sensors through suitable interfaces.
- Network options
- Local Ethernet with 4G/5G fallback where the fitted modem, mobile service and coverage support it.
- Business integration
- Scope bidirectional data exchange with SAP, MYOB, Xero, WMS platforms and custom databases.
Compatibility and integrations are assessed per project. Have your indicator make and model handy.

Engineers who understand
what’s on the line.
A weighbridge is part of a working site. Your software, equipment and support need to work together.
From compatibility assessment to fault investigation, work with Australian engineers who understand the scale, the site and the transport task. Agree on commissioning, training and support coverage around your operation.
Talk through your sitePractical questions
Before you change
a working site.
Will I need to replace my indicator?
Not necessarily. We assess the indicator make, model, protocol and available connections. Supported serial and Ethernet indicators can be retained, along with compatible weighing equipment. Compatibility is confirmed before the installation is scoped.
What still works if the internet goes down?
Configured local weighing functions and record retention run on site. Remote clerk access, live cloud visibility and transfers to external business systems depend on connectivity. Your site review establishes the local driver connection and the exact workflows available during an outage.
Can one team manage several weighbridges?
Connected sites can be brought into a shared remote operating workflow. We scope permissions, visibility, exception handling and connectivity requirements around your team. Remote operations refers to software for your operators, rather than a staffed clerk service supplied by Tetrascale.
Can you connect to our accounting or ERP system?
Integrations are scoped around your system, its available interfaces and the data you need to exchange. We establish which system owns each record, the transfer direction, and how failed transfers are reconciled. Connector availability is confirmed during the review.
Does the software make our site compliant?
Compliance depends on your equipment, installation, processes and applicable requirements. Tetrascale supports weighing and record-keeping workflows. It does not replace equipment verification, public weighbridge licensing where required, or your Chain of Responsibility duties.
Start with the site you have
What could your
weighbridge do better?
Tell us where the delays occur and what equipment is installed. Start with a practical review of compatibility, workflow and integration requirements.
- Identify what equipment you can retain.
- Understand the automation options.
- Establish the scope before planning a change.
