Millar Western Forest Products purchases WeighWiz to complement its previously implemented LIMS

March 2001

After successful implementation of LIMS, Millar Western has purchased 3LOG’s WeighWiz to fully automate its scale house operations in Whitecourt and Boyle, Alberta.

Millar Western has been active in the forest products industry for close to a century, growing steadily to become one of Western Canada’s largest privately owned forest products companies. Millar Western owns and operates three production facilities in the province of Alberta: a BCTMP mill and sawmill at an integrated complex in Whitecourt, and a sawmill in Boyle. Millar Western directly employs 750 full-time employees as well as hundreds of seasonal contract employees involved in forest management activities

WeighWiz can be configured to operate in manual or un-manned mode by truckers using smart card technology (paperless Waybill). Using the advanced replication features of LIMS, WeighWiz can operate in stand-alone mode in case of network failure and synchronize with LIMS as soon as connection is established.
