ScaleSoft Unattended: Key Features for Running a Truck Scale Without an Operator
A ScaleSoft Unattended truck scale setup solves a real problem: staffing a scale house around the clock isn’t practical for every yard.
Staffing a scale house around the clock isn’t practical for every yard, especially when truck traffic is heaviest outside normal business hours. ScaleSoft Unattended, part of B-TEK’s ScaleSoft line, is built to let drivers handle their own weigh-ins and weigh-outs without an operator present.
Kiosk and mobile transactions
A driver can pull onto the scale, enter truck and product details at a kiosk or on a mobile device, and complete the transaction without waiting on anyone. That cuts wait times and reduces the manual entry errors that come with an operator keying in every ticket by hand. It works the same way whether the yard is a quarry, a farm weighing grain at harvest, or a recycling center.
Mobile app access
The software runs on smartphones and tablets as well as fixed kiosks, so operators aren’t tied to specific hardware. That flexibility matters for operations spread across multiple sites or for supervisors who need to check on a scale without being physically at the scale house.
DD Series indicator integration
ScaleSoft Unattended connects directly with B-TEK’s DD Series indicators, including the SKYNET DD1010, DD1050, and 2050, for remote data entry and management. Data entered at the terminal is captured and stored automatically, which matters for yards running multiple scales at once.
Aurora PC software
Aurora PC Software lets a manager run virtual DD Indicator programs from a computer, monitor transactions, and generate reports without being on-site. For a recycling center or similar operation, that means oversight and compliance reporting can happen from an office instead of the scale house.
ScaleSoft Unattended is built to work across agriculture, mining, waste management, aggregates, and similar industries where truck weighing is a daily bottleneck. If unattended weighing sounds like it would help your yard, reach out to Brechbuhler Scales for a demo.
Where a ScaleSoft Unattended Truck Scale Fits Best
A ScaleSoft Unattended truck scale setup works well for yards with heavy after-hours traffic, repeat haulers, or limited staff. Drivers use a kiosk to complete their own weigh-ins and weigh-outs, while the system captures ticket data automatically and flags anything that needs a second look.
