Solve your weight scaling puzzle with 3LOG’s WeighWiz

Our Solution

WeighWiz, is a “real-time” data collection and management software system designed to be operated by weigh masters or truck drivers. It is especially useful in remote areas or during off-peak times when there is no weigh master available. It records information entered by the truck driver or your company weigh master and captures readings from the weigh scale equipment. WeighWiz can on a single scale platform functioning as both the weigh-in and weigh-out scale. It can also control dedicated weigh-in and weigh-out scales. The software creates a completed TM9 ticket, which is used by the Log Inventory & Management System (LIMS), to pay the respective contractors, record inventory, report stumpage due, and manage resources. As the system captures data, it translates it into an easy-to-understand formatted display in a user-friendly graphical interface.

WeighWiz monitors each load for overweight by comparing it to the legal weight for the given truck configuration, season, and route. It can grant exceptions such as additional permitted weight due to inter-axle configuration. The Truck Weigh Analyzer, a component of WeighWiz, captures real-time readings from the weigh scale. These readings are recorded accurately no matter how fast a truck drives on or off the scale. It is able to detect when the truck's full weight is on the scale and ignore errors caused by the driver "rocking" or "holding back".

If WeighWiz is linked to LIMS, the data can be synchronized back to the central LIMS database from each WeighWiz module via modem, diskette, or network connection. The vivid user interface of WeighWiz clearly displays the weight-on-scale, load source identification, and the yard location at which the load was dropped. With the on-screen display of approval area, block, setup number and product type, the weigh master or truck driver can ensure all load information is correct before the truck exits the yard.

Why Choose WeighWiz?

WeighWiz is flexible, user-friendly and fully customizable 

The system has a Windows®-based environment and is completely compatible with most host systems. 3LOG Systems is able to customize and configure its software to meet the client’s individual needs. The user interface is designed for quick access and display of important information. The big buttons and labels perform the best when used with a touch screen system.

WeighWiz will reduce your operating costs by improving productivity

WeighWiz accommodates multiple data collection sites. The data collection system is configurable at each site. Users can transmit data from multiple sites to a central database automatically or on demand. WeighWiz can operate as a stand-alone system in conjunction with existing infrastructure or hand-in-hand with 3LOG’s LIMS software.

Captures the true weight of the load

As an important part of any self-managed overweight detection program, the Truck Weigh Analyzer component of WeighWiz helps you to ensure that trucks cannot bypass the legal fines, penalties, suspensions or reporting required for an overweight load.

Helps with efficient inventory tracking

Manned, Attendant or Un-Manned modes provide the choices to best balance the control of automation when synchronizing data to and from LIMS, even at a remote site. The system’s user interface clearly displays the weight-on-scale, load source identification, and the yard location at which the load was dropped.

Improves processing speed through scales

The system operates either with or without a weigh master as set by the weigh station administrator.
