Using an identification system, the driver can easily operate the scale on their own. This is done via a card reader terminal, available either with a touchscreen or an LCD display and keypad. By implementing our systems, building materials suppliers such as Vereinigte Kreidewerke in S\u00f6hlde and the Heidelberger Group have expanded their goods receipt and shipment operations to 24-hour service. This was achieved without requiring additional staff, as the responsibility for operating the scale was transferred to the drivers.    <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"341\" height=\"256\" src=\"http:\/\/he-entwicklung.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/lkw-fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15104 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/lkw-fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik.jpg 341w, https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/lkw-fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">E.ON Kraftwerk Staudinger driver self-service via card reader terminals with receipt output (receipt) and vehicle position monitoring<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With our <strong>EWP weighing software<\/strong>, you can manage your dispatching operations according to your needs. The driver activates the dispatching process for the weighing operation using his card after positioning his truck on the scale. If certain data is not yet available at the time of dispatch, the driver can enter it into the device. Once all data is available, the initial weighing is performed automatically, and the truck can then be loaded or unloaded.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the second weighing, the driver identifies himself again using the card. The data from the second weighing is added to the data from the first weighing. The system automatically detects whether a delivery or pickup of your material has taken place. Manual operation or data entry via the weighing station is possible at any time.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the vehicle&#8217;s unloaded weight is stored in the system, the process is even easier and faster. The loaded vehicle is driven onto the scale. The driver identifies himself or herself using the card, and the weighing process is triggered automatically.  <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"341\" height=\"455\" src=\"http:\/\/he-entwicklung.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15106 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik.jpg 341w, https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/fahrerselbstbedienung-he-waegetechnik-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Mibau, Cuxhaven Driver self-service via touchscreen PC and contactless card reader with receipt output<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Receipts (work slips, delivery slips, or weighing slips) are printed after both the initial and second weighings. A printer with a presenter device is often chosen for printing. This device does not release the receipt until the printing process is complete, thereby preventing inexperienced users from causing a paper jam by pulling it out prematurely. A built-in clamping system holds the receipt securely in place and protects it from \u201cimpatient fingers\u201d until printing is complete and the receipt can be dispensed undamaged.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By positioning the equipment directly next to the scale, it can be operated from the cab. The EWP-TS operating software is available in multiple languages. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"341\" height=\"455\" src=\"http:\/\/he-entwicklung.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/terminal-he-waegetechnik.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15105 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/terminal-he-waegetechnik.jpg 341w, https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/terminal-he-waegetechnik-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">City of Osnabr\u00fcck &#8211; Piesberg landfill site Driver self-service via card reader terminals with receipt output (DIN A4) and vehicle position monitoring<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Modern sensor technology is used to monitor the vehicle\u2019s correct position. Ultrasonic sensors have the advantage of being resistant to dirt and debris. If the vehicle is not correctly positioned on the scale, weighing will not take place. In addition, a network camera can be used to save an image for each weighing operation performed. Furthermore, the camera image is continuously displayed in the weighing program.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The equipment used is connected to each other via a network, allowing data to be transmitted at speeds of up to 100 Mbit. Communication is therefore many times faster and more secure than with previous serial connections. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All devices are controlled by the EWP software, which offers unimagined possibilities for mapping your individual operating processes and is extremely user-friendly.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Published in:<br\/>bau MAGAZIN<a href=\"http:\/\/sbm-verlag.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(sbm-verlag<\/a>), issue 06\/2003<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you need to save time and money on weighing or ensure your goods flow 24 hours a day?
